Well, it was about 2 weeks ago that I moved everything over to the
Vista SP1 laptop from the Dell running XP. All-in-all a smooth
transition.

All of the software from the Dell is up and running. Several minor
utilities needed for XP are no longer needed with Vista.

My Windows 3.1 language cross reference program even works flawlessly.
After adding the second gig of ram the Vista OS is faster than XP was
with one gig. Not just a little faster either, the difference is
significant. The Dell had a 2.8 ghz P4 and the laptop has a 2x1.5 ghz
AMD. Both have similar video systems too, so other than the ram the
speed difference is a mystery.

The significant only issue so far is that the external USB keyboard
will not start up from sleep mode with out unplugging/replugging. All
other USB devices are fine, it's just the keyboard.

I think it's pretty ironic when a Windows user feel compelled to
report how successful his transition was from a point upgrade of his
operating system. Great Windows advocacy! Haha :-D

Yeah, so ironic:
