Vista newsgroup I thought all the columns like 10 of them listed at the
left????? Doesnt Microsoft have other forums for other operating systems?
Just wondering! Thanks..

You have posted in that ghastly web interface which is not a forum and
neither is newsgroups where I am reading your thread.
Both are based on MS products etc.
To what other operating systems are you referring?
I am sorry but cannot fully understand your problem/question.
As you seem interested in Vista the betaware and you choose to use the web
interface, try the below links.
If you install Vista, you may find No2 below very useful.
