You'd best check deeper, there are restrictions. There are many things that are not Vista compatable... certain antivirus programs are only a part of what can be restricted. That's why there is a compatability check with an inplace upgrade.
Of course there are certain restrictions/limitations, but they are nowhere near as severe as your "If a piece of sofware hasn't been approved by Bill and Company, it won't run on Vista. So, I believe most all of your freeware is now useless." What you said is simply not correct, itīs far from the truth. There are tons of applications and games that work fine on Vista and that were not approved/certified by Microsoft. Some need to the updated, but thatīs nothing special, we had the same situation when people moved from Win98 to 2000/XP or even just from XP SP1 to SP2.
