I just wanted to clarify on the drivers issue, that Microsoft does nto have to write the 4,000 drivers that are on the list. Instead, they take that list to the device vendor and help them speed up the process of getting their drvice driver tested and out the door. As an example, it's not Microsoft's fault that Nvidia has crappy Vista drivers. Nvidia writes their own drivers, so it's their own fault. <span class="mt-export2wp"></span> Now, the one thing they didn't say is how many vendors are on that list, so it's hard to tell how many are in progress. <span class="mt-export2wp"></span> Anyways, this week's show is great, and thanks a bunch for the mention. Hey Todd, thanks for mentioning my post on Vista in your show. I just wanted to clarify on the drivers issue, that Microsoft does nto have to write the 4,000 drivers that are on the list. Instead, they take that list to the device vendor and help them speed up the process of getting their drvice driver tested and out the door. As an example, it’s not Microsoft’s fault that Nvidia has crappy Vista drivers. Nvidia writes their own drivers, so it’s their own fault.

Now, the one thing they didn’t say is how many vendors are on that list, so it’s hard to tell how many are in progress.

Anyways, this week’s show is great, and thanks a bunch for the mention.
