Oh, I got lots. I have to fix Windows all the time here at my office.

I hear ya. I work at an aftermarket warranty center with Circuit City and the number one issue people have with computer purchases is dealing with their hatred for Vista.

Ahh, so you can feel my pain. I personally don't use vista or allow it around my office. It screws with the network too much and slows down every other computer to a crawl every time it tries to use a shared file.

I have vista at home but my office haven't switched yet. Probably won't in some time. They just bought new computers with vista on it and they removed it and put xp on them. We just pushed office 2007 on all the computers and everybody freaked. To this day I'm still cleaning up that mess.

I use Vista at home, but mostly for the media center funcionality I use with the xbox 360. Besides that, I'll probably start dual booting Linux as soon as drivers catch up with the new router I just purchased.

Never used vista myself.

Office 07 is kind of funky. I switched all of ours to openoffice just to keep money in our pockets and out of Micro$oft's. It has been going pretty well too I might add.

Linux should work fine with any router. I recommend Ubuntu linux they have a live disk that you can use just to make sure it works before you go and re-partition and stuff. It works great and is just as "pretty" as vista is without the hassle

Everything has been working well with 07 except for compatibility issues between it and 03. But I have a patch for that. Other than that it's just been dumbass user errors. And when I try to show them how to use it they blame me!

I got office 07 for 21.50!

Still too much. Was it legit?

Yea, federal employee perk.

Ahh. Good ol' perks.
