The good news is that, while operating systems are changing, so is
receiver control software. If it turned out that RX Plus, for example,
couldn't function with Windows Vista or some other operating system,
I'm sure that some other program could and in fact I'm sure that the
creator of RX Plus would act quickly to release an upgraded version of
his software that would work with the new operating system.
