So, I was at my friend's house last night and he's a dumb @$$ because he runs Windows Vista on 1 GB RAM.

Anyway, that aside, he also has Hellgate: London and can run it with DirectX10 settings. OMG! It looks so much better than DirectX 9.0c. It's like the difference between night and day.

Unfortunately, Windows XP will not run DirectX 10. Anyone know if Windows Vista is any better than it was a while back ago? Or is it still just as buggy and a system hog?

I guess my real question is:

With more DirectX 10 games coming out in the future (including Starcraft 2), will you be making the switch to Vista to take advantage of DirectX 10, even though Vista is a system hog?

I'm no expert, but I have been happy so far with Vista. Was worried at first when I needed to replace my computer, but so far I like it. I run 2GB ram on my lap top and 3GB on my desktop and I think it's very responsive.
