Totally understand.
Nevertheless I would encourage you to migrate from Vista to Win7 when you can -- 7 is everything good about Vista without the stuff that makes you (and me) want to bitch about it, IMO. And while Vista is not yet out of time on its Windows Updates, it's less than two years before they slam the door (April 2017). Win7 has about three years of life past that.

Yup. New PC with 7 already on order. I can use my Vista laptop for emergencies, traveling, etc.
