Yep, it was far cheaper to get an HP laptop with the Adobe CS4 suite via an educational package than to get a new Mac laptop so I did. 18 year Mac veteran (I'm an art director) but now also using Vista. So far, I love it. Best advice I've had... disable auto-updates from Microsoft.. Vista for Dummies is awesome (as is AskWoody.com, the author) I've had zero problems. Best thing about Vista (working in Windows) for me so far? The free apps like FileZilla that work 100% perfectly and provide what I need instead of having to buy numerous small apps. Hello everyone

Hi, This is my first time to post. "My computer icon" will not open and will not work when I try to get to it another way. Would that be a computer or a microsoft problem. I have Microsoft office professional edition 2003.

Hi! The welcome message recommended posting a quick intro message in order to present myself. Here it is, then. style_emoticons//smile.gif To tell the truth, I was attracted to the forum by kkepls message about the Intel AMT Drivers. As my work is somewhat related to Intel AMT and manageability, issues found in these drivers interest me very much. I hope to be able to help kkepls with his issue, and also hope to learn from the experiences shared in the forum.
