[DUG] Anyone need XP Pro?

[Sean Cross]

If you are writing applications for Vista users, leave UAC on, at least for the machine/vm that you test on.  Otherwise your app may mysteriously fail to work when run on someone else's machine because e.g. you are trying to write to \program files\.

I have a positive story about Vista.....All MY apps. I have written work on

it with no issues :-)

But like the rest, I have vistal (Ultimate) installed both at home and work

(diff. license incase you license police wanted to make something of it

..hehehe) but only as a dual boot.

I like what MS have done with vista, but just hate the whole thing about

autherising stuff to run. THAT annyoes me !
