    The question is, can it run Aero smoothly? Merely supporting a feature is different than actually doing it smoothly. For example, Windows XP is supported by 64 MB of memory but 1 GB is ideal.

    seen the video, and would of liked to see some kind of specs on the computer being used...its easy to show a computer and say it has XYZ components, but we would have no way of knowing whats inside. still cool nonetheless.

    pb,out.

    I thought we all knew the GMA could run Aero Vista. I thought even the 900 could...?
