I personally would avoid Vista for awhile still. Still seems a bit buggy from what I've heard. I really don't see any advantage over WinXP other than the slick interface and that warm fuzzy feeling you sometimes get from knowing you have the most up to date gear. I'm running both XSI
5.11 and 6.02 on WinXP 64 with no problems. My only three gripes are:
1. Most good shaders are available for 64bit but there are a handful of others that are not
2. No quicktime in 64bit. Not a huge deal but sometimes a pain when trying to export a sequence in the FX tree as a quicktime or using the 64bit flipbook. You can just run 32bit xsi for these needs though.
3. Adobe Acrobat and some printer drivers do not work. Good luck getting Acrobat Pro running on Win64. It installs and runs but you will not be able to export out as a pdf file in other apps like MS Word or Excel. You have to install the CutePDF converter which creates pretty nice PDF files from any app.

Hi there,
can some of you allready comment on
running XSI 5.11/6.02 on Vista64?
I don´t fancy getting Aero to run but
wonder about possible viewportglitches,
64bit shader shortages and in general running
a 64bit WS with shoddy 32bit satelites/slaves,
e.g. transfering myself progressively to 64bit?
Cheers
