That seems reasonable to me. If you're running old hardware, use XP. If you want to run what's typical for sale today and a reasonable price point, get Vista.

Gosh, I've been running 2 GB of Ram for almost 2 years now. I bet most of you have too.

Here's the way it went down at the MS Partner's meeting though -
(Microsoft/AMD TechTour) the basic statement: 512MB will -barely- run
Windows Vista and they noted the real minimum requirements should be:

A processor 2.5Ghz (or Equiv) and higher
1GB of RAM
256MB DX9 Video Card

So there you go.  They noted that Vista was designed to take advantage of
more then 128GB of system memory, so hey, 1GB was "nothing" a starting point
;)  And that most power users would want "4GB and More"
