I have installed it twice, first time it was going well, despite my computer hardware (built-in vga using system memory). Second time it was slow, I did not really understand why, though it was installed on a sata drive, first time it was on pata. I think it would go well on a modern computer though. I like its memory handling, boot was for me faster as on XP, though I have never been playing under vista, so probably this is why I think about it as a good one, I heard it has got problems with games, especially modern ones.
