You should ALWAYS make a backup of ALL your important stuff before any kind
of major change. That said an upgrade _should_ keep it all in place. But if
not then you have the backup.

Probably, as there is no vista buisness.

Love and Kisses,

Going from Ultimate to Business is actually a downgrade. Ultimate has
everything that Business has, but not vice-versa.

fwiw 1: Windows Mail has the ability to automatically "bottom post."
fwiw 2: Of the 30 or so MSFT news groups I monitor on "MSFT" servers, the norm "seems" to
be to top post.
fwiw 3: Since I'm a cantankerous old codger with reading glasses, why do you insist on
making me reread what I just read one second ago?

From one to another:

The ability to automatically bottom post in Windows Mail is a nice but new
feature to Microsoft. The tradition (decades ago when I first started using
email) was to either bottom post or, more often, to intersperse replying
comments within the original text. But bottom posting was the "norm" only
because the software usually put the original text in the reply before
inserting the cursor. I think the newer "norm" of top posting came about
only because so many people who came to Microsoft's forums used Microsoft's
email clients and didn't think that putting their replying comments in
context was necessarily useful -- or, more likely, they simply didn't think
about it at all.

As far as your #3 is concerned, it's hard keeping these lazy young'uns in
line, isn't it? I'm beginning to think I should give up and join the crowd.

I've been a top poster for over 15 years and proud of it! Much more
intuitive ;-)
I hate having to scroll down to read bottom-feeders...

LOL
Did you ever stop to think that if OE had automatically bottom posted, that the norm in
Usenet would be to top post?

If you have Home Premium, then you cannot do an inplace upgrade to Business,
only to Ultimate. If you wanted to upgrade to Business, you would have to
back up all of your data to external media/spare hard drive and do a custom
(clean) install. Business does not have Media Center, so upgrading from
Home Premium to Business would entail a loss of functionality, which
prevents the ability to upgrade inplace.

No, it's just that I tend to read top-down, if I need to catch up on what
has been said I can always scroll down or look at previous posts. Bottom
posting is like reading the next paragraph _after_ rereading the previous -
very tedious.

Top post vs. bottom post = wasted bandwidth.

This post is off topic and has nothing to do with Vista.

No, teaching proper posting is never a waste.

Also wrong, proper posting is never off topic in *any* newsgroup.
