Vista


Recommended Posts

The release date is supposed to be Jan 30. I wouldn't be too eager to jump into Vista. There are so many hardware questions that have to to be ironed out first. Your current PC may be able to run Vista, but will your printer, scanner etc. be usable?

MS has a download that will scan your PC to see if it can be switched, but even this "Upgrade Advisor" isn't final.

This is from the Advisor download page:

"Note: This software isn?t final, so the results you get may not be 100% accurate."

I just ran the software to check my system for upgrade and it indicates some hardware & software (no mention of VW here) incompatibilities.

It's a valid question, but I don't think there's an answer yet.

I have heard about the potential problems with hardware and have been looking at the issues. I bought my laptop with a Vista upgrade option.

I would assume the the VW people are aware that Vista is coming out and should be able to tell us about whether 12.5 is compatable with Vista, or give us a timeline about upgrade compatability.

Anybody at VW there????
