Im seriously considering wiping my lappy & installing xp. I have managed to make the vista a little more user-friendly by disabling a huge load of things,but the other prob is disc space,& ram. Printshop for example requires 128mb on all other operating systems,but 1G for vista.And that applies to most programs.I'm now really wary of anything 'microsoft'.I use open office,firefox,& if there was a decently comparable os,I'd have that too!
Oh for an apple! :D

I am in the IT field (almost 20 years now) and all of my systems are still on XP. It WORKS... and so far I've had no need of Vista or anything else for that matter. In fact my personal PC's are all still using IE6... again... it works. I prefer to let them work out the bugs instead of rushing in to install the newest software.

If it wasn't for corporate standards beyond my control I'm sure I would be on MAC and/or Linux.

Yeah,I was quite happy with Win2000,but this lappy came with vista,& not being overly computer savvy I wasn't sure how to swap os,so stuck it out.But I'm learning more all the time.Today I upgraded my ram,changed the card myself & all.Perhaps not a big deal,but am rather pleased with m'self nonetheless! :)
I've been doing some research,read a review comparing Win7 with Linux,of which I know very little.But seems it's very popular! I know I'm really happy with open office,& firefox,both open source,so I'm looking into it further.Ubuntu do a new update evry 6mths,next due Oct,& I can try before installing.Not 100% at this stage,but warrants closer scrutiny....
 
I ended up getting the Print Shop Deluxe 23 for $35.00 including shipping to Canada . I can't wait until it gets here , to play with it .

Thanks for all your help everybody , much appreciate it .

Good luck, Kitn! Let us see what you come up with!

I've got CS2, and I'm pretty sure I can do stuff like that with it, but it took me long enough, and took too much patience, just to learn how to edit photo's lol

i hate learning curves :)

Me too. I hate Vista. DH wiped it off both of our computers and put XP back on. Now things run again! Yay!

I use CS2 and sometimes the Maestro download you get free from onlinelabels.com when you place an order with them.
 
i use avery's design pro which you can download for free. i tried maestro but avery is a bit less headachey for me.
