The original link to Vista Discussions IS broken.
After you sign-in, you still can not post, or reply
BUT, the link posted here WORKS.
http://www.microsoft.com/communities...s/default.aspx
You scroll down the list to: microsoft.public.windows THEN expand it for
Vista Newsgroups
And it works the same as the broken one; sign in via Hotmail Account.
MS emailed me this link months ago, when it 1st happened.
