Default USB 1 ... to...USB 2

Is it as simple as buying a USB2 card and whacking it in my PC to "upgrade"
from USB1 technology??? So as to take advantage of Readyboost properly?

Yes, pretty much. Your PCI USB2 card will handle your flash drive and run it
at USB2 speed. Some drivers may be needed, but they should come with the
card.

Uhm... why not just whack some more memory into your PC instead?

If your PC is old enough that it doesn't have USB 2, then I really don't
know why you'd want to install Vista anyhow.
