I hate that version of Vista too... it's on my daughter's laptop. Vista Ultimate on the other hand has features I wouldn't give up to go back to XP.

Does no one read my posts? I had just posted one up mentioning that I'm running the D2D version, SF free and sans disk... works fine with GWX and I even have the hi-res tweek running it in 1680x1050 (something that never worked for me using XP btw...). The fact that it also comes pre-patched with 1.4b is a nice bonus. UBI has nothing to do with D2D; they sell all sorts of software other than the UBI titles. You get an account and whatever you buy appears in the account as available for infinite download.

I also don't seem to have all the admin problems others complain about with Vista Home.
