Although your machine is Vista compatible, I do not believe that Vista is out yet.  Microsoft is not quiet -- when it comes out, you will know.

See if your town has a 'Thrifty Nickel' kind of free newspaper.  They usually have listings for used computers and accessories.  I bought an older IBM computer with Win98 and a decent monitor for $90 from a man who bought a bunch of computers from a local college.  If you can live without XP, you might do better.  You can still access the Internet and do word processing on older operating systems.\n\nIf you want to buy new, try a place like Office Depot for EMachines desktop PCs.  They've been offering some really good rebates lately.  When we get our rebates back, our new computer with XP, monitor and Canon printer will only cost $300.

I just tried the Vista 57xx build and even with a P4 3.6 ghz, geforce fx 550 256mb graphic card and 1 gb of ram, it WAS SO SLOW. Even if the website requires only 1.6 ghz or what have you, Vista asks for alot of power. So unless Microsoft is willing to lower the vista components, your going to have to upgrade to at least the Geforce 6 series or your p4.  \n\nIf your willing to spend money, i recommend getting a PCI- express compatiable motherboard since PCI-express graphic cards will surpass the AGP and  the pCi express graphic cards ARE ALOTTTTTT CHEAPER!!! Besides that  =/

You know... you could just buy the Windows Vista and install it on your computer. It would erase all the memory it had, but if you want Vista that badly, you could save the things you need onto a pen drive or something before installing it.

No.  You can always just get a new laptop with XP instead of upgrading to the new Vista.

Look to your local PC stores and get one built - you'll be able to get it built to best suit your needs and it will save you a bundle. You don't need to be some sort of computer expert - they should take however much time is needed to sit down with you and go through all your options. \n\nDoing this will give you a computer to rival anything off the shelf, it will no be weighed down with a whole heap of proprietary/3rd party software which you'll never use (and will slow down most systems anyhow), and will save on the wallet, which means you'll be able to afford to get the bells and whistles which otherwise would have been out of your price-range.\n\nOh, and just a tip in regards to Vista - get the full copy on disc. Will save a lot of headaches in the future if you ever have to reformat your system

If you are talking about software product keys, then look on the manuals those are normally on there.  If you are looking for computer product keys, then look on the sides, top, or back of the pc tower.  If you have a laptop, look for the product key to be on the bottom of the laptop.  The product key should be green with numbers and have microsoft on it.  If you still cant find it, then call the place where you purchased your computer and theys hould be able to help you out.  If you purchased it locally or it was a long time ago, then call a local computer place in town, they should be able to help.

Run the Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor beta to help get your PC ready for Windows Vista.\n\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/windowsvista/getready/upgradeadvisor/default.mspx

No, not unless it's preloaded with a new system I buy and I can't get a discount by having it unloaded.  I have XP, it works fine, and unless I can get a license for Vista legally for no charge, I'll continue using XP or I'll put on Ubuntu instead.

Download the Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor from Microsoft website. Then install it onto your computer. Run the application and it will let you know if your current good machine is good enough to run Vista.\n\n\nNote: Vista will be available in 5 flavours. Basic to Premium.
