With the launch of Microsoft's Windows Vista today, I have to say that I will
not be installing it for awhile.
Why? Simple reason: I want to see what works with the new operating system, what needs upgrading, and what totally bombs out on it. I utilize quite a few of Yahoo's widgets for my PC and was excited to learn today that the
Yahoo! Widget Engine 3.1 and all of their over 3,700 widgets have no issues running on Vista. That's one daily use application checked on my list. Will the others work? I will have to wait until some further reports come out. Until that time, no Vista for me. Stay tuned as Download Squad covers the trials and tribulations that come with the new Microsoft Vista release.

Ditto your comments (although I am very content on my MCE box right now).

Well, I for one have been using Yahoo widgets throughout the beta phase of Vista and they have always worked. Im with you in that it would of been a real bummer if they hadnt.

I have been unable to find a volume control that works with Vista.
