    Its not worth it tbh ;p

    DON'T install it on your main pc if you do bother - just get it to try on another one.

    And I was able to download it off MS's site - however, it was a shit download and quicker to torrent it, to be fair.

    Min specs for XP are: 512 ram, 2ghz processor. But, it should run fine on the laptop... might need drivers though for stuff, I dunno.

    It'd be fun to try it - backup anything needed, and you can also put XP on later if it doesn't work properly or you dont like it!

    I was under the impression that MS wern't allowing any further downloads of Vista beta 2. At least thats what my beta user email says.

    No idea, that ain't what I have at all! I have no search on my start menu, but I do have transparent windows! (including the start menu zomg!) And the same sort of theme. But no start menu search.

    MS have yet again stolen some innovative ideas from OSX and slipped them in brazenly into this new Vista business. Bleh.

    And Mac have stolen ideas from MS.

    It's how private industry works!
