If you’re thinking about purchasing The latest operating system from Microsoft called Windows Vista for your current windows XP system, that is due to be released in early 2007, then you should download and run this tool:

Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor beta

Note: Make sure you have at least 15gb or more of free hard drive space, otherwise you’re just wasting your time running this tool. Go to My Computer and right click on your hard drive and select properties to see if you have at least 15gb free. If you dont have enough room, clear out some space. Most people have at least a 20gb hard drive. The standard is pretty much 40gb. If you have less then 15gb of total hard drive space in your computer then its time to upgrade. I havent seen a Desktop or laptop sold with less then 40gb of hard drive for a long time.

Word of advice: Dont buy a new desktop or laptop until Windows Vista is released in early 2007. There will probably be alot of deals on Desktops and laptops right before the release of Windows Vista Then maybe later on, you can snag a copy of Windows Vista on Ebay for a lower price and then upgrade. :)

Read about Windows Vista and all its new features here: Windows Vista Home

If your desktop or laptop doesnt have the hardware to run Vista. Do not worry. Its better to wait until you’re ready to purchase a new desktop or laptop(See above: Word of advice). You’ll save money and you wont be dissapointed if Windows Vista turns out to be a disaster like Windows ME. I plan on waiting to be on the safe side.
