They are notorious for not providing backward support, all the more reason to get customers to upgrade :)

FYI, Acad 06 works fine in Vista, you just need to run it as administrator.

Also, when they say "support" that doesn't necessarily mean it "won't run" on Vista. it's just simply unsupported, and may not run, or may have issues once installed. :)

not having openGL support will make it not possible for me to upgrade ( i use open GL heidi drivers and a Quadro video card ) not to mention the new DRM that takes away from overheard performance too.

vista is 90% slower in graphics applications w/o it

what other program in history is more schiesty with its predatory tactics against it's own customer base? none i know.

reading the autodesk newsgroups they all say wait till 2008 for support
