Re: Windows Vista Business compatible with Windows XP pro

Thanks for responding

No problem yet. I receive my new laptop next week which has Windows Vista
Business. My client is running their network on XP Pro, and I'll need to
hook into their network with the new laptop which has Vista Business. The
client was not sure if the laptop would be able to work with their network.
