Thanks for the link...
But do you think that I can use it on my PC with 1.5GB RAM to put Vista on it. Will it slow my PC same as I do a normal installation? |

I'd say there would be a noticable difference (possibly highly noticable)
I haven't tried it, so I cannot comment When you do actually try it, please let us know the performance loss |

Not too much slowing but I don't found it to much useful for me except using it for preventing against virus and spyware.
