However, (and I haven't paid much attention to this because I have
absolutely no intention of updating to Vista)......a lot of the programs
he presently has on XP do not have drivers that will work with Vista.
And as with any new operating system, I would give it at least 6 months
to get some of the major bugs ironed out and when Vista's SP1 comes out,
that would be when I would think about it. Quite happy with XP though.
