That is encouraging.....I am sure there are others out there who have found
compatibility with Vista, but not with our systems. I work with hundreds of
observatories and observers weekly and the use of astroprograms with Vista seems to be a
major problem with the majority of them, myself included. But....as those who know me
will quickly confirm....the computer is still a magic machine with wizards in it for me,
and I am not as proficient as others in setting up programs.
