Thanks. I’ll wait 2 years till the wonder of the new enhanced bugs have played out.

I got a free copy of Windows 2000 pro when it first came out but didn’t install for well over a year. When I did, my computer would not work because it was not compatible with my video card.

No problem,by then there had been a couple of SPs released and one specifically called out a fix for my card. I downloaded in safe mode, installed, and it worked fine ever since.

The only way I would buy a “brand new” operating system is if it came with my new computer, ensuring compatibility. But I always build my computers so that option is out.

No need. This is more of a new and improved Vista - with a lot of new features, and working much better. But for once they built on something they already had. I think it’s going to be good.
