    No and no - why switch to vista? It is still brand new so it will give a bit of trouble I assume at first. I am happy with XP and won't change it as long as it keeps working like it is now!
    As stated earlier I did have to roll one box back to XP. At home I have 3 XP boxes a Vista Ultimate with no Aero and 2 linux, both SuSE. Since I have grown to completely LOVE Vista the home Ultimate Box is going to move to a new box and XP installed in it's place. Why XP.... iTunes. Too bad PyMusique and SharpMusique kind of died.

    //EDIT whoa something happened I wasn't finished with that other post but it posted? I never hit save. I must have hit some key combo.

    Hopefully the Mods will delete those other posts. Don't know what happened.

    Does ITunes not work in Vista?
    iTunes would probably work on Vista, I haven't heard anything about it not. But that box is going to be extra and I am going to put a gob of old hard drived in her and make it a dedicated iTunes (fairtunes) box.

    Can't you delete them yourself? I seem to have an option to delete my own posts.

    Hi,
    I work in a company called Indiaesecure and we use Linux (backtrack)
    As far as our clients go,we are yet to see any client who use Windows Vista.
    The reason mainly are

    1.Huge costs
    2.Take the workers some time to get used to it
    3.High system requirements

    Many people still work on Windows 98.

    Exactly - the only people within our international, massive company who use Vista are the Microsoft campaigns. We're still using Windows NT believe it or not! And it's a similar story in other places like ours. I have a friend working for Sky tech support and their systems are just as antiquated.

    Hi,
    Does ITunes not work in Vista?
    Initially there was some trouble but then i think that iTunes launched a new versionfor it.

    Hi Moira, is that NT 4.0?............... I used to like that OS............... I have done quite a few migrations to Win 2000 (which is actually NT 5.0 ) and they went pretty smoothly.

    I also still use Win 98SE as do quite a few others I know. Educational machines for young children, stand alones for word processing, gaming, multimedia, digital photography and so on.............. software licence management, security camera control.......... clocking in systems...............
