Vista Not Compatible With SQL Server 263
kiran_n sent in an article by Fortune's Owen Thomas on Vista not being compatible with SQL Server. An excerpt:
"But now Microsoft has a problem. Vista, its long-awaited update to the Windows operating system, can't run the current version of SQL Server. The company is working on a SQL upgrade that is compatible with Vista — called SQL Server 2005 Express Service Pack 2 — but it's in beta and can be licensed only for testing purposes. Microsoft hasn't set a release date for the new SQL program."

So tired, so very tired of explaining it all...
IBM compatibles were some of the choices when I went to buy a new computer. So was Apple's DP 1.8 G5.
But after spending my work days on an HP and dealing with XP and it's quirks and watching my family and their shiny Dell's go through the virus and spyware shuffle, I went with Apple.
And to keep at least slightly OT, there aren't a lot of "more choices and cheaper prices" music stores (including Real) that also WORK AS WELL as iTunes and are compatible with OS X.
