So you can prepare yourself for Windows Vista - and in a year or two it will surely become a 'standard' operating system. One last thing I wanted to mention is that DDR2 prices are constantly falling, article 'Users will continue to see bargains in DRAM memory prices throughout May and June. But this situation on DDR2 market will not last forever. Since Intel has practically launched P35 motherboard chipset, and we'll see first DDR3 modules to debut on market. So who knows will DDR3 modules have effect on current DDR2 prices or not.
