Default Anyone here upgraded a Dell E510 from XP Home to Vista Premium?

I have a seven month old Dell E510, preinstalled with Windows XP SP2.
Just curious to know if anyone with this system has upgraded to Vista
Premium and what were your experiences?

I have a E510 that has been running Vista Ultimate beta versions up to Vista
RC2 just fine for some time now.

My E510 came With XP MCE, but I did a fresh clean of Vista Ultimate, not an
upgrade.

My E510 ran Vista Ultimate RC2 just fine with 1gig ram, and integrated video
and sound.

Runs better now that I installed a 7900GS video card.

When you buy the Vista Premium Upgrade DVD, aren't you given the
option of doing an upgrade or clean installation?

I found this in another thread (possibly another newsgroup), earlier today:
