Windows 7 is MUCH better than vista..

[miiworld2]

Disagree. I actually am happy for him that he got vista. I used to hate it too but I spend more time on it and it's great. You just need to take more time getting used to it y'know?

@menziesicknut what you have to do is go to the Acer website and download the wireless driver (this is on a different computer of course), transfer that file over on a flash drive, install that on your Vista netbook, and it should work (I recommend Ubuntu Linux to people, it runs much better)

Windows XP does recognize the Intel Atom's hyperthreading, my netbook has Windows XP Pro on it and it reads it as 2 cpu's, I saw a netbook in radio shack that has windows xp home on it and even that saw it as 2 cpu's, also, I have the exact same netbook as you do, I had Windows 7 on it for a while, but downgraded back to XP

I have Vista Basic on my netbook, and it's perfectly fine, definitely prefer it to XP, Mine isn't modified though, just retail vista.

@VOREVTO I'm not gonna tell you how too download it, that would be illegal and your likely to download a virus. But you can get vista and windows 7 online for around £60-70 look for an OEM version but buy from a reputable company like ebuyer dot com as there are a lot of scams going on. There are several guides as to how to install vista from a USB stick just google it.
