Audi,

Thanks for posting this. As expected on the compatibility issue but I didn't
know it was this rich in Vista. Good to know.

I haven't had Vista crash so far and I run it full time on one of my
systems. I will say this: buy a PC that is supposed to run Vista and has
been tested. Even though I am running mine on old stuff, it wouldn't be my
recommendation.

Overall, I like it but I am not going whole hog until I replace my main
system.

Alan and all,

Here's the link to the SAS-Vista installation guide:

Audi,

A lot of us would like to know how you managed to do this. I would assume
that it is making SAS think it is running under XP (using emulation) so
steps for making this happen would be appreciated. I don't have time to go
hacking around right now but having SAS run under Vista would be great.
