I just sprung for a Compaq laptop with Vista home premium (getting it tomorrow); mainly because it would behoove me to learn the bugaboos of Vista. However, the main box and rendergarden currently are running XP Pro, XP home and Win2k (and I'm collecting OEM's XP-64, so that the next time I upgrade I can set up dual boots on everything....I want 4 gig of useable memory with V6I, I do I do.....), and there is no plan to pollute my working machines with....IT. btw, anyone notice the strange resonance? Vista Virus Coincidence?
