    Out of all of the people complaining that Vista "isn't out yet" ... this comment actually makes the most sense to explain the incompatibility. There have been what... 2, 3 more builds since RC1 that have been available for public download?

    That being said, it seems to be the actual Zune software that's not recognizing a supported OS - and not necessarily the OS allowing it to install. So the build of Vista may be irrelevant.

    ... if Amarok and Rockbox will work with the brick before Vista does. Hell, that would make it useful. I know, few people would waste their money on something they have to reprogram to make useful ... outside M$ PCs that is. Just get a Zaurus it's got better battery life!

    Well, now I have at least one reason to buy a Zune.

    Errr.... you mean being too clueless to locate free porn on the internet?
