I'm thinking of getting Insight Broadband soon, but I noticed that Vista is not on Insight's list of supported OS's. I'd appreciate it if anyone using Vista with Insight could tell me if they've had any trouble out of it, please and thanks.

Yeah, I didn't see why it would make a difference either, but the site mentioned it so I wanted to make sure....Strange Insight people

Right now I'm on 56k dial-up, but I'll be calling Insight tomorrow to set up an installation date and stuff.

The only reason that they don't list Vista is because they have software to activate your account.. I have Insight up here in West Lafayette, IN and I don't require software.. However, my next door neighbor has some software service activator crap.. It also include a diagnostic tool.. I don't think they ship this anymore because from what I remember about the actual layout is that there is a mention of the @home network, which was dissolved in late 99-00..
