Post on Vista General unless your issue is specifically a setup problem.

This group has been designated Setup for months. Please use it that way.
The last three weeks itts gotten flooded with questions that have nothing to
do with setup issues. It makes it more difficult to help on setup issues
wading through all the messages that are important to you but don't have a
damn thing to do with setup. If you can buy Vista, I assume you can read at
some level. Put your general questions on the general group and leave this
one for the setup issues.

If it's Adobe--it don't go here.
If it's driver--it don't go here.
If it's Winmail--it don't go here.
If it's Office related--it sure as hell don't go here and I've answered a
ton of Office questions/Outlook questions and BCM questions on the general
group even though they have their own groups and all their helpers have used
and most have Beta tested Vista for over a year.

Re: Post on Vista General unless your issue is specifically a setup problem.

One more try. Believe my first attempt got hit by the net police for using a
bad word.....you can guess which one - starts with bull.....

Chad,

You've eliminated a lot of items but haven't yet given a good example of
what a setup problem might be....

You state that a driver related issue is rarely a setup problem - I would
strongly disagree with you. If you'll read some of the posts concerning the
inability to load Vista (that's setup) because of a bad driver or lack
thereof - then I'd say it belongs here.

And please identify your relationship with MS - an employee, MSVP - or are
you just another "paying through the teeth and don't need any bull from
a net nanny right now " customer, like the rest of us?

Thank you,

Bob S.
