Windows 8, Windows 7, or Windows Vista? Which is better?
Windows 8 is the better of the 3 and if you don't like the touch screen interface it has a option that allows you to change to the windows 7 interface. And if your laptop uses the new AMD APU's,windows 8 supports that cpu architecture so you will get a better performance boost out of that cpu than if you were using a different windows OS , also windows 8 uses less RAM than the other two so your laptop will run faster
Which is better...Windows Vista Home Basic or Windows XP?
I still like XP over Vista. I tried to do something that involved changing a game slightly and all i had to do was edit a notepad created configuration file. Simple huh? XP did it without bitching and moaning woohoo, new mod. Vista wouldnt let me do it at all. A simple thing like editing a notepad file? Are you kidding me? What a great security feature huh? I wasnt a happy chappy. Vista looks better than XP but is a RAM hog. Your 2GB would be better utilised in XP. If you want speed, functionality and ease of use choose XP. If you want a funky, fancy looking, bug riddled OS that uses more ram (leaving less for the programs you install) Choose Vista.
Anyone have advice for buying this computer?
I am thinking of buying a Sony Viao FZ series laptop that has 2 gigs of ram and a NVidia 8400 GT graphics gpu. I am into gaming but I don't have enough money to get one of those expensive alienware computers. Is this a powerful gaming pc or is there something better for the same price. Please, nothing much more expensive if you have another computer in mind.

Is using Windows 7 in 2018 still a good idea?
Two possibilities:Assuming your PC/laptop has a 6th generation processor or lower. In this case, it is mostly a matter of taste. I like Windows 7. Because it is almost junkfree and not confusing. It is possible that some softwares require Windows 10. But personally I see that a distant possibility.Assuming your PC/laptop has a 7th generation processor or higher. You have to use Windows 10. Because Intel 7th and 8th generation processors doesn’t have drivers for Windows 7.
