    I just couldn't believe that Vista Business Edition wouldn't include the standard MS games package with the OS upgrade ------ after much snooping around, presto!

    Note: Windows games are not installed by default in Windows Vista Business and Windows Vista Enterprise. To install them, click the Start button , click Control Panel, click Programs, and then click Turn Windows features on or off. In the Windows Features dialog box, select the Games check box, and then click OK. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    A minor point, of course ---- but Vista felt lonely without them. :rolleyes:
