Avoid Vista notebook??

Anonymous

Hello

I am looking for a new notebook, hope to use archicad and photoshop on it. Right now there are option with windows XP and with Windows Vista, the latter in the newer models. I would like to go with Vista, but I am worried about some issues with AC10. Is AC10 usable under Vista?

There is the option of a macbook also... but I have never used a Mac...

greetings
Sebastian

Take a look at the MacBook Pro 17". It's a great machine.

One could argue that you have never used a Vista machine, either 😉

jeje, you are right. But somehow I guess it will be a lesser learning curve going to Vista than to OSX (for a former win98,2000,XP user).

Anyway, are there people using AC10 with Vista? I have read some problems report with AC10 and Vista, but they look outdated or not so serious...
