Hadn't really thought about that but if you're enjoying using the SZ3 now, I can't wait to show you Vista on the Vaio TZ12 I have when I come over to Cork. Not massively powerful (Centrino Core Duo @ 1.2Ghz - but with 2GB of RAM) so for doing typical work (email, PPT etc)it’s great. The real killer is it comes with the option of a 32gb SSD flash drive rather than 100GB disk. As you’d expect, that means it runs quieter, faster and battery life is astonishing. On max battery it delivers 7hrs. You can also add an additional 32GB SSD in the express slot. Still comes with DVD drive, built in webcam etc and weighs in at 1.19kg...oh and it has a "chiclet" iBook style keyboard though could do with beign backlit like an MBP.

I wonder if Parallels even supports Cleartype? Good point Branedy - I haven’t tried Cleartype in Parallels on my Mac - that’d be an interesting comparison.

I wonder if Parallels even supports Cleartype?

I simply haven't had free cycles to back up all my data and reinstall XP, so for now I'm stuck with using a beautiful OS that is as usable as a jar of honey - d'oh!
