Of course that isn't all that important, it seems:
"Some vendors have already come up with software for Vista (such as Magix
with its latest version of Sequoia 9.1) or are about to release products
(Steinberg, Motu, Native Instruments), while others would prefer to stick
with XP (and of course Mac OS X)."
Not much interest in Linux, apparently, among the professionals.
"But by next summer, all major vendors say they will have released programs
and, more importantly, hardware drivers for Microsoft's new operating
system. The software vendors say that pressure from the market is picking up
because a lot of new PC systems are only being sold with Vista
preinstalled."
Everyone will be on board the Vista train anyway in a few months.
