I don't know if it's "slick salesmen" or not. It's a matter of what
"Vista Capable" means. If it means that the PC will run Vista, then it's
not deceptive. If they want to define it as "being able to run Aero as
well as a bunch of other crap" then maybe.
People shouldn't buy a $300 PC and get pissed that it doesn't have the
same features as a $1000+ PC.

Idiot consumers are forever tying their PC purchases

were duped into buying
low-end PC's that can only the most basic version of
Vista (means nothing given
what's not in VHB) which of course begs the question
were those pc's also so low
end they could barely run XP?
On the same token these idiots don't even know why
they wanted Vista in the 1st
place especially since they likely bought low-end
systems consisting of Celeron
& integrated RAM stealing video.

'Windows Vista
Capable' PCs," she wrote.
Why the hell would you not call Vista Home Basic
"Vista?" And since when
has there been market demand for Vista at all? If
anything, Vista has
put XP in more demand.
I hate lawyers.
