Will soon have to upgrade my PC so am interested in PhotoRaw and Vista
1) Does it run flawlessly on Vista?
2) How does it use a wide screen - will the central part become bigger?
thanks in advance

It seems increasingly difficult to get XP on a box these days around where I live.Thanks for reminding me - I contacted Epson UK and they, as usual, answered extremely fast:

nuthin runs flawlessly on vista
not even calendar
good luck! (you will need it)
If u wanna upgrade from xp-based pc, there's only one way at the moment, buy a mac.
Or i would dare to say, even a user-friendlier linux version is better.

Few months after the vista fever, the biggest shops here in NL (mediamarkt, etc) started to re-introduce the option of xp on the machines. Now you can buy usually the same machine with any of the two systems.

Not using CR (use Lightroom) but I've been running Vista for almost a year now. Originally, it was a bug-fest. I am not going to try to recount my frustrations.
HOWEVER - and I'm not a Vista defender and have no real interest in this (am running 5 other machines with XP still) - in the past few months the Vista machine has gotten very noticeably better. At this point, compared to the various XP machines, it runs everything that's running on the other machines equally well...neither better nor worse. Many programs and drivers that were originally incompatible have been fixed or released and I wouldn't make a buying decision at this point based on the OS unless you are aware of a specific problem that hasn't been resolved on a machine that's well-maintained.
FWIW, you also should bear in mind MS's limited support/sunset policy on non-current (I won't say obsolete) OSes. I tried to reload the OS on a 98 machine last year and found that MS had NOTHING available. I found all the old service pack CDs but it was luck that I had them (and could find them).
