Default Re: SE4, SE5 and Vista?

Just adding my 2 billion Turkish Lyra.....

Anyone who uses a laptop to do any kind of "in the field programming" of devices via 485/rs232/serial should NOT get a new machine with Vista on it.

That might be what Fyron meant by "AV software." I typically program universal remotes, security panels and DVR's, and Crestron and Lutron processors.
