    Hi Folks,

    Which O/S is stable for Dell Latitude D630 - Windows XP or Windows Vista ?\

    Secondly, is it possible to go to MSDOS & type some syntax to confirm system specs. just to make sure that i'm getting what i paid for ?

    Thanks - Mave

    From what i've read - either will be a good option. Running x64 Vista myself and it's been superb.

    I agree. Either would work well. I'm running XP pro and have absolutlely no problems. I think it's just a matter of personal preference--and if there are any limiting factors based on the applications you want to install.

    Good luck!
