I got a low score of 320 on a brand new laptop. here are the specs

dell- 1530
Proc- T8100 core 2 duo at 2.1 Gz
HD- 320 Gig @5400 rpm sata
Video- Nvidia 8600M GT 256mb
Ram- 4Gig 667Mhz
DVD- 8x dvd rw
OS- Vista premium
. I did some tinkering and finally got a score of 640 but i think that is still pretty low for what this computer has. I know vista is a slug and runs very slow and if I could i would totally go XP and im sure that in the future the drivers will be available, but for now is this a normal score for this laptop? I mean the components are all pretty decent I would think the score should be better.
