FWIW, other than some of the oddities of getting Vista networking permissions correct, my Vista machines have networked just fine.  I'm currently running several Vista machines, XP machines, and three Windows 7 machines.  All of them network just fine.  Vista had some teething issues, but after SP1, it settled down to be a reasonably reliable O/S.

But I'm just kinda gonna bet that you'll not convince HighMaster2 of that at the present moment eh!  ;D

All kidding aside, Vista has been very good for some, ok for others and a nightmare for some too, just like any other O/S. On my personal Vista laptop it has been a nightmare, networking issues, no driver updates for some of the barely functioning hardware, etc etc. I am holding out very high hopes for 7, it sounds like Bill G has another winner there. But until SP1 we won't know for sure, so until then, for my clients, I am keeping them on an older but more reliable (in my estimation), and somewhat cheaper O/S. And since I have to service this equipment, I prefer the familiarity and simplicity of XP for the gear I have to fix.  ;) ;)

You may note how I spell Windoze.  Vista was bad on release, better after many updates over half a year or so.  I like my Vista but I like Windoze 7 even better.  I recall Punched Cards (programming in machine code), CPM, DOS, Windoze Original, Windoze 2 (never ran it), Windoze 3.0, 3.1, 3.11, 95, 98 (crap), 98 SE (better), Mellenium (crap also), XP (good after SP1).  After all that I almost feel old but I know people older than that.  I also recall bootstapping a computer using a diode matrix and the memory was called core memory.  It was made of ferrite doughuts.  I actually have a drum memory, like a hard drive but on a drum and is 8 megs of storage.  Back in those days that was huge!.  Although the first hard drive I worked on was an IBM disk pack.  I use to do maintenance on them, re-align the heads.  Yea, heads in open air, not sealed.

How in the world did I get here from the start of Windoze.  Oh well... Time to run, my son is a Marine who works a few miles from Ft. Hood.  Need to check to see if he's doing well, I'm sure he is.

Well, I worked for IBM in the early 60's, the days of big iron.  I've been involved in computer technology ever since. :)  My first personal computer was way before the IBM-PC was even a gleam in IBM's eye. :D

Very cool, it's good to know (no offence) that it's not all kids out there.  And a kid to me is anyone under 30 these days.  Wish I were a kid again  ;)

I think all of us that pass a certain threshold wish we could go back a couple of decades. :D
