an HP as my guru has retired and I don't trust anyone else around
here to custom build me a new one.
I don't have a problem with Vista. The laptop (HP/Compaq) I left at my
Mom's house runs Vista and I've had no real problems. Having said that, if
you use Mozilla Firefox as your default browser Vista has a problem with it.
If you click on a link, Vista throws errors saying it can't find the page
(even though it finds it perfectly well). You have to edit the system
registry to get around it. The "fix" is on Firefox's web page.
