Hi I can offer another option, which I find very satisfactory. My previous laptop had windows vista and was unsatisfactory. When I bought a new computer (with Windows 7), I formatted the disk on the old computer and installed Linux. I tried 2 or 3 different linux packages and since my computer was weak, I settled for Fedora which seems to use less resources than Ubuntu.
The computer used to get very hot with Vista, but behaves much better with Linux. I use both laptops in parallel, but tend to use the Linux more.
