    Ordered 7/22 arrived 7/30.

    T61, ordered with 512MB Ram, Vista Ultimate.
    Replaced RAM with 4GB Geil Ram from NewEgg (in Ram Deals). Replaced drive with 200GB Hitachi 7K200. Installed Windows Vista 64 on new drive from $5 Anytime Upgrade DVD following stallen's Clean Install Guide.

    Copied 32-bit Vista Ultimate Activation (using Orev's utility) and used the file to activate the 64-bit Vista Ultimate.

    Now I see 4GB RAM in the Control Panel (only saw 3GB under Vista 32).

    Thanks to all for the hard work and support!
