Hoster 3.321 has ALL the Vista fixes we will do for a LONG time (Lord willing). Hoster 4.000 already has the IDENTICAL changes we evolved, tested and polished in 3.321. There will be no difference.

MTUSUPPORT found on the MSN Developers Network that Vista SR1 was released to OEMs in Dec 07 or Jan 08. So, the "big boys" already have it, but it is "beta" for anyone else.

Now, since HP is one of the "big boys", one can assume they greedily pawed through SR1 as soon as they got it. Reasonable assumption?

So why in March did HP start offering FREE "downgrades" for their Vista customers to go back to XP? That says reams to me that HP considers Vista a serious liability to HP's survival to make that offer.

How long do you want to suffer with Vista?

It's your choice. We have done everything we will for Vista for the foreseeable future. 4.000 has what 3.321 has, and it seems to be working correctly.
