Not quite a "discussion group" but a wonderful forum that is welcoming
to newbies:

Computer Haven belongs to MVP Patty MacDuffie. It covers more than just
Vista.

How do you deal with Patty Frank, you call her a troll, liar, idiot or
drunk? That's how you act here all the time.

Hi David B.--

There are so many I don't know where to start. Simply googling or MSN
searching for Vista groups will find you hundreds if not thousands. Also,
most of the Vista web sites have forums .

I have to say though that given the variety and volume of MSFT groups (there
are OEM system builder groups, and partner groups as well as hundreds of
these groups--i.e. several for Outlook and Word, and Office hdw and software
types for example), for the most part I've been able to either get good
answers to questions or cull these groups for tips. I think you need to
drill them deeper to realize the advantages.

I have a collection of hundreds of groups for Vista. Just google.

These two are pretty high quality:

Check 'em out.

Good luck,

CH

Now Frankie, come clean, you keep trying to pass yourself off as
"expert" on everything, yet you admit you hang out at what's obviously
a beginner's site. Actions always speak louder than words. You just
hung yourself...again.

I deal with people the way they present themselves...as an example I
deal with you exactly the way you've constantly presented yourself to me
and others in this ng.
In other words, you get what you deserve mr genius.
