All the little extras are fine. Similar to most other systems out there. The problem is that you cannot run Vista on a Celeron with only 512MB of RAM and shared graphics trying to hog some of that memory. Anything you try to do will be immensely slow.

I was playing around with my wife's mom's laptop with 512MB of RAM and Vista and a lot of things run slow on it- I'm not talking about multitasking, I mean single task. I told her to add an extra GB of RAM and it runs just fine.
