windows vs. A/C

As the weather warms up, I'll need more than my vents to keep from frying while i drive. Is fuel economy better w/ the windows down (increased drag) or w/ A/C on (increased engine load)? I don't have the $$$ to get a scangage II yet to test myself. I drive a 97 ford aspire 5spd . THANKS!
