I have used this vista free version for some time now. Its too good. and its smooth. I think the final version will beat all OS previous versions. I am now planning to get a upgrade of RAM or USB drive of 1 or 2 GB respectively!I got a rating of 2 .. upgrading ram will increase my ratings!!!

Dont be crazy to get a flash drive to use it as your swap. Flash drives work for about 1,000,000 cycles. If everyday even 100,000 cycles are used up then your flash drive will last only ~10 days

i know that... but thats bad on MS part to introduce a booster in a form of a pen drive. I was also thinking on same lines. its better option to get more ram.
