Just finished my Vista Ultimate install and received a free 1GB usb flash
drive with the purchase. Plugged it in and configured to speed up system and
was wondering if I'll actually see a difference on my system ( 2 GB ram
installed). Anyone play around with this yet and have an opinion? From what
I read with 2 GB system memory the speedup won't be much and it will be hard
for me to tell being a new Vista user.
Thanks,
Bob

With 2GB, you won't see a huge difference. But with 1GB or less, it is
more noticable. Basically, it puts your page file on the USB stick which
is faster than your HD. So, if it has no need to put anything on the
pagefile (lots of RAM), then it won't matter much!
