How could you say that an OS is a powerhog? The only thing that would make it that is the hardware you need to run it. As for why on a laptop why would you not want to put the most recent OS on your equipment? As long as your hardware supports it.

If you can stand it go with a smaller screened P-M processor and get extra batteries for it. That will be ur most power saving. Make sure you have your screen sent to dim and graphics set to low.

Kwark,
Do you have a reason behind saying that? I would agree with the fact that if you have the spare cash get the Dual core processor. Are you on much of a budget if so how close are you to your max? What do you plan to do with it?

I have the same problem on a friends computer and have resigned my self to the fact that i can't fix it and make it stay so he just has to deal with only one drive. His bios supports both but i can't get it to stay that way.

Vista from what i know isn't still hard set on needs but i keep hearing that you will need a pretty potent video card to run it.
512 megabytes (MB) or more of RAM
? A dedicated graphics card with DirectX® 9.0 support
? A modern, Intel Pentium- or AMD Athlon-based PC.
