I personally have been dabbeling with the idea of vista with SD for the carputer. I'm running vista and XP, and I have to agree with whats been posted. Vista is heavy-handed for a carputer (althought I'v upgrade to a duo with 4gb ram so I don't think it will slow down the system too much) but the media center is great.

Really the only reason I've contemplated using vista is the hybrid sleep option. For me, this seems worth it. Prob. the best, new feature of vista. No more waiting to boot up or unhibernate and if batt power is cut, you still can boot out of hibernation. I think this is the perfect power managment option for the car. What do people think?

Also, saw a post about problems with using disc drive with SD in vista? Anyone?
