I've been running Vista for nearly a year, and I tried the betas out as well (RC2 and RC3) and it has certainly come a long way from the Beta software in terms of crashes, RAM usage, and performance. Not to mention Compatibility as well which sucked in Beta RC2.

By the way, Aero doesn't use that much RAM either. It uses more Video RAM than system RAM, unless of course you have a card that sucks your RAM down because it has shotty on-board memory to it.
oh god I would suggest UAC to be turned off! It's useless, we don't even read the dialog anymore, we only press accept by automatic.
