    Does anyone know if the most recent SWX viewer program will run well on a
    Vista laptop ? Specifically - be able to show SWX2007 files ? Thanks.

    Have not used the SWX recent viewer but you can try using e-drawings
    on the Vista.

    there is a special vista viewer but i believe it is only available to
    subscription users. and it is still in Beta 2. in fact all of the
    SWx 2007 vista is in beta 2. no production release for vista until
    2008 release or later.

    note to SolidWorks Corp.: only a few computer vendors have WinXP
    available and it is only on high end systems. i am in contact with
    MSoft to see if i can downgrade vista license to XP32 and they state
    that they can not do OTS systems that you can buy at local computer
    store. so unless you are going to schell out the big bucks for a Dell
    or similar, the common user is stuck with Vista. so we need a vista
    version of this SolidWorks that is released, real soon. yesterday to
    be factual becuase the common joe is stuck with Vista OS.

    forward progression is great, but not when there is only one is moving
    forward. iQ

    I'm wondering if Viewer 2007 can run in compatibility mode ?

    Vista is progress?? For whom? Big media companies, maybe, but from
    what I've read, definitely not for CAD stations.
