    Alright, so my new Dell 1420 will be at my house Tuesday.
    I got nice Vista Ultimate 64bit DVD waiting to be installed on my computer desk.

    What kind of problems would I run into if I install Vista 64?
    I read the m1330 thread, and would it be that hard to make it work?

    So, your using the 1420 now?
    Well, my plan is as soon as I get the laptop.

    Pop in the DVD and let Vista format the hd, and then let it install it self.
    Shouldn't like the CPU drivers come with Vista?
    Or I have to look for those too?
