I know, I know - flame away but its not clear to me if Python will run on a system running Microsoft Vista. Is anyone successfully running Python on Vista? If so, is it what version of Python are you running? I'm ordering a new system and if Python won't work on Vista then it will definately influence the OS selection. Thanks in advance!

Everything works perfectly on WinXP. Anyone has any idea if...

Hello. I have a table PC, running Vista Home Premium (64bit) and when I try to write with the stylus, it is VERY slow to repsond to the touch, and it often does'nt record a key stroke, or at least 'jitters' displaying dashes (rather than continuous lines). This renders it impossible to use my stylus in tablet mode - though it responds well to touches from the stylus, when opening icons for instance, it cannot be used for drawing or...
