I’m no software/hardware expert, I pray to the Big Guy when my computer turns on and my Blackberry sends me my emails… but learning that MSFT’s CEO Steve Ballmer is hinting that they might keep XP if customers ask for it, I wonder why MSFT did not encourage Vista sales by throwing in a second Gig of Ram for free on all purchases of Vista-powered computers?

With 1GB of Ram, Vista is utter crap. But the instant you have 2GB of Ram, Vista is fine. Would it not be cheaper for MSFT to subsidize (at cost) an extra GB of Ram to get Vista working properly?

Just me… maybe it’s too late for Vista but this might serve as a good case study for future upgrades.
