Can anyone tell me if Lightroom or CS3 are compatible with Windows Vista? I'm looking at purchasing a new PC and I'm not sure what operating system to go for?

The reason for my query is because on the Lightroom box, it says under system requirements "Microsoft Windows XP with service pack2, Intel pentium 4 processor"? View my gear list HERE

That said, the updates for LR are quicker than a standard Adobe schedule, so the issues will also be fixed quicker, so anything that does cause you a problem should only be a temporary issue.
