Just curious as we need new computers.

Hi Joe.

did you check out the Vista (http://forums.augi.com/forumdisplay.php?f=752) forum?

On their web site, Autodesk says AutoCAD 2008 runs on certain versions of Vista. That being the case, I doubt they will put much effort into making prior versions of AutoCAD Vista-compatible. Unfortunately, it sounds from your question that you're not ready to upgrade to 2008.

I do, however, see that Dell (probably among others) still offers Windows XP on new computers, so maybe you can avoid Vista incompatibility altogether.

If AutoCAD 2007, take a look HERE.
