    Need a decent font manager for Vista

    Anyone know of or is currently using a good font manager in Vista x64?

    On the Mac side I use Linotype's FontExplorer X, which in addition to being the best font manager there is, it's also FREE

    Unfortunately, they're putting out a Windows version but it's not released just yet.

    Frankly font handling in Vista blows as is, I need a decent font manager to fill me in until Linotype releases theirs.

    I'm also wondering if it'll let me use my huge collection of postscript fonts. OS X works seamlessly with windows fonts, I have a feeling though Vista won't return the courtesy

    I use MainType but there are other good font managers. Fortunately MainType allows me to use my postscript fonts as well as all my other fonts.
