I have more than one computer, all networked and with Windows XP
Professional... if I intall VIsta on one of them... will I have any problems
networking ?

Will I have compatility problems with the software applicaitons?

I currently store my data on one computer and access it from my laptop...
would I have problems doing that if I have Vista on the laptop and Windows XP
on the desktop?

XP and Vista can share files/printers just fine. This link will show you
how to do it:

As for your applications, you'll need to go to the program mftrs.'
websites and see what they say about their software.
