Vista definitely requires more memory than XP did to achieve similar levels of performance. That is to be expected with all of the new functionality invovled. To run Vista at its best, I recommend you have at least 1.5 gigabytes of RAM. In my experience, the following is a mapping from XP RAM to Vista RAM requirements for eqivlaent performance.
XP RAM Vista RAM
128 MB 512 MB
256 MB 1 GB
512 MB 1.5 GB
1 GB 2 GB
Bink: I agree, run full blown Vista, you'll need at least 1,5 Gb
