I think Vista--using a high-end hP laptop with Vista Home Premium--is a nightmare...the laptop continues to "crash" with "blackscreen seizures" causing the Media Centre buttons to be inoperative. As I use Microsoft Office extensively I have come to the opinion thats is the scrolling function within Office that causes the problem...both Microsoft products!!
But here's the rub...what choice do I have...go back to an Apple Mac to obtain a "smooth information highway" on only 5% of available "roads"? -
