I haven't tried Vista yet, but I think one problem might be that some
software doesn't work for Vista as it does for XP. I'd like to see a
list of software that doesn't work with Vista.
I'm not talking about upgrading to the latest version of software to
solve this problem. If one has only a few applications such as commonly
found at a worksite, upgrading is not such a problem especially if the
work provides the upgrades. But if one has hundreds of applications at
home, some of them costing $500 -- $1000 apiece, getting the latest
version just to be able to run them on a new OS is a definite problem.

I see that Dell will stop taking orders for XP equipped PCs on the 18th

XP because there are no XP drivers for some components (sound cards,
NICs, etc).
So after failing to take over Yahoo are we going to be the next
recipients of MS tenderness? Are we experiencing a hostile takeover this
week?
Does anyone have a strategy for avoiding Vista?
