>Vista is going to be a nightmare. Most of our clients expect a PC to work like a car. Turn the key and go. What else do you need to know. Their tech support is somebody's daughter or borther-in-law.

Yep. We put out a notice to our clients before Vista shipped that we didn't intend to support it in the near term so please don't even try.

The only feedback we got were from the very large corporate sites ("we're not going to touch it for at least a year") or the very small sites ("we'll call you for blessing on any new hardware before we order as usual").

I've been testing our app, and we're remarkably well set for existing on Vista. (Particularly after some changes we made to better cooperate with terminal server.) But I'm still not looking forward to it because we'll end up supporting *Vista* instead of our app.
