Yes it is. Just steer clear of a Toshiba - for some reason Toshiba laptops seem to have deficient "drivers" for the video card (which is what controls the screen display on a computer) and the people who have that brand get an incomplete set of background dots. The rest of the programme works fine, but their screen display has columns of white patches where dots should be. However, they can still draw on the white bit. And that problem isn't linked with Vista.
On the subject of having to get Vista - ask very carefully if you don't want Vista. I bought a new HP laptop a few months ago, and of the six models from that one brand, only two only offered Vista...the rest were either Windows XP or a choice of XP or Vista. And a big local computer retailer is actually offering models with Vista installed and a conversion disc back to Windows XP included free of charge. If you don't want Vista, you shouldn't have to buy it, but you might have to work hard to convince the retailers, because they probably ordered in the Vista-only models when the programme came out, and of course, they want to sell their stock. And good news for anyone considering buying a new lace-design programme - Lace 2000 will very shortly be superseded by Lace RXP. I'm testing it at the moment.

As we would also use this computer when travelling etc, I was wondering if anyone knows if Lace 2000 is compatible with Vista Sue [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
