Is 1 gig enough for Vista?And does readyboost give any advantage?

I'm in two minds in adding another gig of memory to run Vista, I think its running pretty ok on the 1 gig with about 50 percent memory usage, just wondering about others experience, I was also going to try the USB readyboost optioin with a 2gig USB drive, does that make any difference. Thanks in advance Snake ;)

For comfortable performance you would want 2gb in my opinion

REadyboost makes a bit of a difference for a 1G machine but not worth while for a 2G machine.

The processor speed also has a big impact on this also.

My friend has a new PC with only 1 Gig ram and running Vista, With nothing running only Vista it's using 61-65% of the ram. 1 Gig is not enough.
