Anyone know anything about Vista? Other than it is a memory hog? I recently upgraded and I ...yes actually like vista but when I am online it skips approx. every 5th letter. It only does it when I am online. Is there something I can adjust to fix it besides going back to XP???

what do you mean it skips every 5th letter? Like, you're typing and the letter doesn't show up on the screen? if so, I'd suggest first testing it with a different keyboard.

I have vista also, and I like it for the most part. I havent experienced your problem, but I'll ask around to some folks who use vista and see if theres any more info I can get for you!
