Is window vista still using alot of your computer's resources? I have low specs and I am worry but can some check if I could use window vista.

You'll be fine. Bare minimum I'd recommend to run vista with full features is p4 2.0/AXP 2000+, 1gb, DX9 video.

Without aero glass and a few optional features, you'd be able to get by with 1.0ghz and 512mb for general office/email stuff, but forget about any type of gaming but online flash. 😛

As far as vista vs. XP, aside from using a bit more RAM (most of which is taken up by optional features which can be disabled), Vista runs as well if not better than XP on the same spec.
