Window Vista

Got a new/used computer for the office. it only needs to run a MS Access custom app and Firefox for address search and confirmation.

It's a Toshiba Satellite A135-S7404 laptop with 1.5Gig of RAM, Celeron 530. has Vista home.

it runs the Access app pretty well. Firefox, and Chrome and IE before it, run slow, very slow, like something's wrong slow. just ran speedtest.net and the speeds are the same as my Mac. both are on the wireless Pre-N router. the card in the laptop is G however.

is this a Vista thing? Should I bother putting Windows 7 on it?
