New software is released to take use of the current available hardware, and to be able to make good use of the available hardware over its lifespan.
XP was released in '02 (IIRC) and what was the top CPU then? About a 2Ghz, 512Mb RAM was still pretty tops and a GFX was hardly more than 64Mb.
What's top at the moment? Dual-Core 3.8Ghz? 2Gb ram is standard, 1024Mb gfx is top-range.
Not supprising running Vista on a 5 year old PC might be a bit of a strech!

Yeah well he appeared to let ME slip by un-noticed. I am not the greatest fan of microsoft, but generally it works and I personally cannot do any better, so I use it.
HOWEVER! For those that have experienced ME otherwise known by the numerous help line people as "Arrrr, you mean Many Errors"; I can only shake my head at the heartache it caused me over the years on a work laptop. It certainly one that MS just plain got wrong.
Not really trying to flame you here. Just reading through and it was something that caught my eye.
Cheers!
