Bolton is only 20-35 miles from me (unless the UK has more than one bolton?), but Iam not going any way. No one to go with and I dont think its my thing either.

Interesting venue - a University. Being a local school governor, I've seen documents that say that Academic institutes should delay the implementation of Vista as it doesn't contain any features that are of additional benefit. I wonder if that point will crop up at all!

Just to make the location 100% clear, It's Bolton Lancashire / Greater Manchester

Yeah, I only ever replace my Windows systems after they are about 2 service packs into the new one.

I hope that car isn't running Vista, they'll be doing a lot of walking.

-or-

I hope that car isn't running Vista, visibility is reduced on roads not certified by microsoft's DRM.
