Hi guys!

I am upgrading my current Toshiba laptop to a vista based dell laptop this week. I use a lot of software in my xp based laptop. Will all these software work on vista?

Do you know when HP will come out with vista based laptops in india?

Please reply.

Adobe Photoshop has been upgraded to CS3 and works fine with Vista. It is in beta stage though.
Microsoft Office has been updated to 2007.
iTunes and Skype work with Vista.
MSN Messenger has been updated to Windows Live Messenger 8 and works with Vista.
Google Earth and Sketchp work too.
I am not sure about the last three.

Hope that helped. :)

@aryayush: Thanks a lot.

But, I just had one more question. Since CS3 Beta is out, are you sure that CS2 wont work with Vista at all?

What about printer drivers and software? Ive got a HP Photosmart 2608 all in one. I got some software from HP along with that. Will they work?

CS2 works with Vista but I remember that gxsaurav had once reviewed Windows Vista Release Candidate 1 and had said that launching Photoshop disables Vista's Aero interface. It might have been fixed in the release version. The software is supposed to work fine anyway.

BTW, I recommend you to download and use CS3. It is very fast and the interface rocks! :)
