My boyfriend does the billing for his father's medical practice and uses the
Medisoft software. His computer recently crashed, so he ordered a new one
from Dell (since the local computer place wanted to charge $850 for a plain
tower with 1G and Windows XP). Problem is, all Dell offers are computers with
Vista. Medisoft has already acknowledged that their programs are not
compatible with Vista and that a version that is will not be out until
October. However, upon saying their program is "not functional" with Vista,
they go on to say that they will therefore not be held accountable for any
functionability problems one might encounter by using the program in Vista.
Does that mean you CAN use the program in Vista but it may not work just
right or does it mean you can't use the program in Vista at all? And why are
so many programs that are comptabile with XP not compatible with Vista?
Last question: Since my boyfriend obviously can't stop working to wait for
the company to come out with a version of their software that is compatible
with Vista, would it be possible for him to just go out and buy Windows XP
and install it on a computer that comes equipped with Vista? A downgrade, I
guess?
