Gartner: Half of current PCs will show all of Vista
eWeek | at | by Mike
Microsoft's Windows Vista will run on just about any PC available today, but it will only show its true colors on about half of them, according to a new report from Gartner.
Whereas today's mainstream processors and hard drives offer plenty of performance and capacity to keep up with the new OSnow scheduled to arrive for large businesses in November and consumers in January 2007IT managers and their counterparts, in addition to consumers buying PCs, should take care to specify at least 1GB of memory. If they aim to tap Vista's Aero user interface, they will need a recent graphics processor, a new report by Gartner said.
