OK, so you now have 10 guys who signed up. Microsoft is selling millions of
copies. Sounds like something Alias cooked up during a drunken rage!

Several flavors of Linux available for download, most with a 'Live CD'
so it can be run without installing it first. They even help you create
a dual boot for the dummies who can't do so, and if you like it, just
install it. WGLLT. ODF is the wave of the future and the world is
noticing.

I have software that ran on XP that won't even install on Vista.
Vista is S L O W !!!!
Vista won't even permit me to install Partition Magic.

There is a conflict with Vista and a well-known piece of software that
ran on XP fine (AOL 9.0) --- fonts rendered two small to read on Vista

The playing cards in the games and their movement are both silly
and distracting.

And ISP's , I presume, have been persuaded to exclude Usenet Groups
re vista --At east ATT Worldnet does not provide those groups on
their Usenet server. That would keep the noise level down!

No problems here. I have tons of XP software, running well, but some
programs I updated because there were new versions.

Get TweakUAC, to put UAC "to sleep" (quiet mode)

I've used Partition Magic in numerous machines on numerous versions
of Windows. No once has it "f***ed up" anything. Have one now on
XP and it has been the only way I can get an external (usb) hard drive
to work!

well there are some of us who can't buy every new version of
everything that comes along and still hold onto some old things --
in my case that includes an AOL account. So???

It may surprise you, but a few prople do. In fact to many new
machines are designed for "gamers".

I'm suggesting that they have no reason to with hold those few groups
(while providing tens of thousands of others) unless there's some
collaboration with MS --- to keep the noise level down.
Read PC mag about the huge upsurge of protest about Vista. In fact
they suggested in a recent issue that Bill Gates should personally
apologize for the Vista version of Windows.
