According to this Athlon32 processors aren't "Vista Ready" (whatever the heck that means).
Oh yeah, you can hear the sound of hardware vendors saying "CA-CHING!"

Of course if Vista keeps getting delayed then by the time it's released Athlon32's will have gone the way of the Dodo and the 80486...

Sweet. Let them kill them selfs. It will be funny when linux is better then windows and just as easy to operate.

Great I can keep running Linux on my Athlons and have even less reason to even think about Windows.
