Vista


Bob has a Sony laptop computer he bought in October because the old Dell was dying. The big problem is one of the software packages he has to use for what we call the big report jobs does not work on Vista and there is no fix planned.

We also cannot use his laser printer with Vista. HP has no plans to fix that mismatch either.

We are facing finding yet another laptop with XP. If we find a good one, the Sony will fall back to my use mostly. So this week the search begins. Dell still has some XP loaded machines.

Not all new things are good things. Maybe the Mac guy on the commercials makes sense. It's just that our industry does not support software for Apple.

'til later
