[AccessD] OT: Vista

I agree with Stewart. 

If you wait until June to purchase Vista the upgrade to Windows7 is free.
Vista is now little more than a lame duck and even though much of its
technology will carry on, the Windows7 interface is much more sophisticated.

Maybe all that will be necessary is to freshen up the Vista document and add
some more features and viola' the top 10 for W7.

On the other hand, at the risk of being crass, who cares as long as everyone
got paid. ;-)

PS Very well written too.

I'd say it was more a list of "10 things that Vista does better than XP"
rather than a reason to 
move now.  

With the imminent release of Windows7,  moving to Vista now means you either
get stuck 
with a dog or have to do two re-instals to get "Vista done right" which from
all  reports 
appear to be what Windows 7 is.

I certainly won't be upgrading any XP machines to Vista and am advising my
clients to hold 
off on purchasing new workstations until they come bundled with W7.
