Wednesday, October 11th, 2006
Vista comes in six flavours, with Windows Vista Business and Windows Vista Enterprise aimed at

The minimum requirements are a 800 MHz processor, 512 MB of system memory and a DirectX 9-capable graphics card. To get the full benefit, PCs need at least a 1 GHz processor, 1 GB of RAM and 128 MB of graphics memory with Pixel Shader 2.0.
