Oops, wouldn't make a difference in this case.

Vista doesn't appear to be requiered. I think most competitors are in the same boat in regards to OS.

Vista support is optional. 
What you folks don't think you can make a kick butt skin for XP and WB6?
You are joking, right?

Basically try harder to win first place. (I'm a baaaad boy)
I'm sorry, you have a serious question. I would think that something could be arranged to exchange it for another item of equal value.

I don't think any insult or exclusion was intended. Both terms have become so generic of "all you people" that offense is chosen by the reader, not by the writer.
