welcome to the world of built in drm ... everybody just cant wait to "upgrade" to a new operating system that is more intrusive and limiting ...people should boycott microsoft on vista is my opinion ...

Nope... not true... i'm a graphic designer and currently using windows vista... you are able to use your Autocad or Photoshop CS2 and older versions. -but i don't think you would be able to install Photoshop CS3 though cuz ya know this whole security thing keeps improving... 3dsMax 8 works fine on windows vista. the thing is if you'll be using copied photoshop on vista... the registration box would pop ups every single time you run photoshop.. but that is not a problem since you already activate the product... my suggestion is do not update your photoshop... if its 1.0 dont update it to 1.1 etc cuz it'll just ruin it. ---- Photoshop CS2 works great on windows vista.
