I can understand that you might want to drop Vista if you have had that
many problems, but not all of us have those kind of issues with Vista.
It's a new OS and It's not surprising that some of us have issues and
that we run into glitches.
But I wouldn't throw out Vista because of minor problems, and I think I
heard that is where this original thread started.
Vista requires some time to learn, as does Office 2007, but unless Vista
gets scrapped, we are all going to have to deal with it in the years
ahead.
So my recommendation is that we make a distinction between major problems
and the minor glitches,
Distinguish between problems that make Vista useless and those that need
to patiently follow the learning curve.
Blessings,
Tom

Hi, Andrew.
Dave here.
Personally, my expirences with Windows Vista have been absolutely horrid,
mostly with program incompatibility issues, and hardware just not working
with it. It did not like JAWS of any version, and for the month I had
it,
it was a non stop headache of one problem after another, including
hardware
crashes, program crashes, and a total inability to use my computer at
all.
I finally got fed up with it, and had my rehab officer send my machine
back
to Dell, and had XP SP3 put back on it. I just got it back a few weeks
ago,
and have had no problems at all since. And since my machine is a Dell
Vostro
1500 with 2 GB of ram, a Intel Dual core processor, and a 145 GB hard
drive,
that was originally desinged to handle the rigors of Vista, XP SP3 runs
on
it like a top.
Imho, I would drop Vista like a hot potato, and go back to XP.
