Whether or not Vista offers any benefits to you, is something only you can decide. But can we have enough of the "Vista has no benefits" or "Vista is the bee's knees" posts? This has been *done to death* on the list already.
If people want to share *why* they are moving to Vista, or why they aren't (e.g. a technical issue with app compat or something) then that's useful information. But the below is worth nothing. You've already posted this before, there's no need to post it again.

I should spend the money to acquire a new FASTER computer so that I can run Vista which runs at the very SAME speed that an older slower computer did running XP, but Vista really has little if any to offer in the way of benefits. Now I get it!!!!! I'm loving this thread, because so far I don't hear any good reasons to upgrade to Vista. I've been in IT for nearly 44 years. During that time I've seen a lot of changes, and in most cases more productivity for smaller amounts of financial investment. But I just have a real problem with spending MORE to get virtually nothing for my investment......other than I can tell people that I have VISTA!!! I want to thank everyone for reaffirming the decision I had already made for my organization.

So your Pentium D 3 Ghz should be fine and dandy with or without the 4gb obviously 4gb would be better but then that goes for xp too.
