Maybe its just Microsoft/Amazon think they can screw over EU customers as Americans seem so obsssed with sueing over the slightest thing? Who can tell!
In any case a man as educated as Bill should really know the conversion rate typically means £1 to $1.6-$2, I barely know any american business people who dont know that... in any case the difference in price is offensive whichever company is to blame!
As to the lack of driver support for Vista its just another good reason not to upgrade until companies/individuals who dont investigate the first release of software bleed on all its problems, no fancy menu or half assed attempt to port off what seems to be rip off's of Apples software is going to intice any IT professional to seriously promote this software IMHO... at least not in the work place. The malware popup's are also another good reason to avoid this release, Windows XP's ballons while annoying can at least be disabled!
