I'm sorry to hear you're going through all this, Don.

Vista can be made much easier to handle with a few select tweaks, but HP is 
the one responsible for making sure a system is fullly functional before it 
leaves the factory.  While it's a lot to ask of a major manufacturer, the 
internet connection abilities (including networking) has become a major 
feature of any OS today and should, therefore, be tested before the unit is 
shipped.

My blame would be laid much more on the maker than the OS.

Peace,
Gman
