RE: Will Vista be a Media and Entertainment nightmare?

Production Assistants Needed For SM WestEiren,

sounds like you work in the PR dept of Microsoft! Never heard so many
compliments of a new product like your view of Vista. While respecting your
personal experience, I think I will wait till other chime in before making
any leaps. Also will wait for reality check of what Vista can't do...like
help 80% of people on 2 year or older PC's, etc. Does Vista mow the lawn?

Will read expectantly about others experience with Vista and Media, and yes
hoping for good news and new digital performance.

Thanks,

John

I've used many solutions however have to say you get what you pay for.
Vista has demolished over open source approach I've tried in terms of ease
of use, functionality and reliability.



It's finally given me reason to retire my xbox media center which did a
great job of most of this.



Best wishes,

Eiren
