Well, your guessing is misleading you. For me, the most important part 
of a program of its kind is not the eye candy, but what it does and how 
it does. And certainly MultiPSK does its stuff WELL, and is among the 
pioneers in more than one front. It is an innovative  communications 
program that is useful in many modes, as a peek at its specs will show you.

It is not the first time that Vista FAILS with an otherwise working 
software. The list of Vista shortcomings is long, starting with an 
excessively greedy hardware requirement, and the requirement that the 
software it runs be rewritten according to its requirements. It is like
changing the car controls in a new car model, which requires a new kind 
of highways.

MultiPSK has worked well with XP, Win2000 and I used the previous 
versions on my old Win98 and now retired PC. Also works well under Linux 
with Wine.

Can you correctly guess now what is flawed?

Beauty is on the eye of the beholder. And it does not tell the whole truth.
