    I run an online business and Windows Vista just ain't business ready. Enough said! This has everything to do with time and money. :mad:

    Ya... the business people still prefer XP ... its easily available.. just contact your Laptop manufacturer or the shop from where you bought.

    Although Support isn't very enthusiastic (Driver support for XP is poor still) but gets the Job done. My dad bought XP on the same day as his laptop.. Came home... didnt even have a look at Vista & formatted & installed XP.
    So you can do the same.

    Dont waste your time here as Rants wont be entertained.

    I really thought we quelled a lot of the "Vista sucks" talk, but I guess not. XP isn't difficult to obtain so go ahead and get a copy to install.

    If you aren't going to give any reasons for your opinion, your post is just useless noise.

    Threads like these don't accomplish anything productive so its now closed.

    If you want make a new thread on possible ways of getting the software to work with Vista or how to install XP(or Linux), then go ahead.
