You might want to read that and seriously consider their 30 day return policy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've read in places that there are Open GL issues. Supposedly, my system is Vista ready. But being that we are tied into Open GL I want to be sure before I even attempt a switch.

And, just for grins, is there an option for a Dual Boot installation? If so, I might get something like Partition Magic to create a new partition for it.

My Experience With Vista

Also, right out of the box my Dell desktop that came with Vista  had incompatibility errors for drivers on software that they themselves had installed!  Nothing like shipping out a computer with an OS that their own software can't use!!!!!!!!!!!  Stupid freaks!

Am I bitter towards Dell?  Just a tad!!!!
