I've had my part of problems adapting to vista - and yes - I've done my part of swearing too

But whether I like it or not, I have to - customers are buying vista and my software has to run on it
Last year I both upgraded from Xp to Vista and from vfp6 to vfp9 at the same time

It won't get any easier with the newer OS'es coming after vista
