I am in the process of researching laptops for my daughter who will be heading for college in the fall. The laptop in question will be used for college work like research, papers, homework, internet surfuring etc. She is not a gamer.
Right now there are many good sale options with Vista as the OS. The thing is many people are having issues with this OS. My daughter does not have the knowledge if something goes wrong or has conflicts with Vista. For those running Vista on an LT, what have been your experiences, expecially with wireless, card reading, and drivers, i.e. printers?
For the work I described this laptop will be used for, will Vista suffice with 1 Gig of RAM and a dual core chip? Will a single core chip not be fine as well?
Thanks.
