It's about time for my quadrennial computer upgrade, including the antique machine that drives my VL200. Plan A involves a new laptop and a new CPU for the big computer in the study, and using that CPU (a 2.6GHz Sony P4) to upgrade the machine that drives the laser.
Plan B, given the prices/speeds the way they are, is to replace all three computers, but that will almost certainly force me into some flavor of Vista on the laser's computer. I know there were a lot of driver compatibility issues when XP first came out, but I haven't heard much about driver problems with Vista...then again, the drivers for a laser engraver aren't exactly "mainstream" applications.
Anybody running a ULS laser with a Vista-based computer yet? Also, any known issues with Corel X3 under Vista?
