I grabbed a couple of my DW's ols software apps that she has had for many years.
They all loaded just fine and run fine.
I'm starting to think, what's all the fuss over Vista.
She will probably have a problem or two, but it seems they have taken out the problem bugs.
I also turn off those pesky "Are you sure you want to do this" message windows.
i hate to say it, but I may just love Vista. At least for her.
To 8.1:
I intend on turning her old PC into another Linux box and dump the real old Dell PIII. May keep the HD though.
lwmuddy,
Follow this link to set up a dual boot system with Vista loaded first. They also describe many other dual boot schemes. I was forced to set up a unit at work and these instructions worked out great.
I have the RC of Win7 and so far I am very impressed. It is running on an old 1.2G processor 512G memory Soyo board. It is very stable and runs better than I would have expected with the limited memory. The annoying security windows of Vista seem to be gone. I was able to set up an HP printer using compatibility mode for Vista which worked very well. I am a big XP fan but so far Win7 looks like a worthy replacement.
