[stylist] Vista vs. XP

[Judith Bron]

I read, or was told, ages ago that XP was the perfect version of windows.  I 
have no idea why they changed.  Can you still get XP?

I seem to recall reading an article by a Computer tech in the paper that
one could somehow make the Vista work the same way XP did, but it's not
something you'll do yourself.   You might consider consulting with Computer 
techs
out your way, and asking if they know how to do this.
Hate Vista.   I have an Apple, and now an Apple laptop, which I haven't set
up yet, but have no intention of trying to transfer documents.   You might
try emailing them to yourself, and then importing them from the email on the
new computer.   That might make things easier.
