So I noticed myself. Finally RC2 Installed last night and no change. I
really wish someone would solve this freaking issue!!! about probably 60% of
the world's computers run XP Home. If Microsoft doesn't fix this it's gonna
really hurt them in the long run. We all can't afford the prictag they're
asking for vista, and right now if I can't get this fixed, I agree with BigK,
No Vista for me. I need my printer!!!
