Sure I understand if you have some old, clunky desktop then you cannot realistically expect to run Vista, but not brand new hardware.
Heh I put vista on my old 512MB laptop, ohh the pain, I can see how the people felt when this happened to them and shops were selling Vista capable machines like this.

I too would be spewing.
