Quote - Vista is a good OS now, not that I ever found it that bad to begin with!

I agree. I have been using Vista 64 bit for 3 months now after buying a new sooper pooter with it preinstalled.

I have had few... if any... real problems. Poser Pro runs like a dream... Vue 7 runs like a dream.

I wanted to get Carrara 7, but understand that it wont run on Vista 64 bit without a lot of hacking, so... I am running Carrara 5 which... runs like a dream.

The only program I am having real trouble with is UVMapper Pro. It runs okay, but I get a grey box effect when trying to select areas of the texture template which makes it very difficult to select vertices, et., precisely.

I have found Vista 64 bit to be very stable... no system or program crashes. Personally... I wouldn't go back to XP now. But... I am keeping an eye on Windows 7. Don't want to try the trial version and will wait till the full version is available and see what the user reports are like.
