I decided to donate because I value the work of developers outside the commercial mainstream, and the app I wanted to use (Screenshot Captor) appears to have all the features I need in a screenshot utility, and then some.
Thanks for your work and I wish you every success in your endeavours.

A reportedly, increasingly common tale of the not-so-smooth switch over to Vista.

In the world of operating systems, Microsoft Windows Vista is just a baby. It's just now toddling along on new systems being sold throughout the U.S. And, like a small child being dropped by the stork to new parents, it's available to older desktop PCs via Microsoft's download-to-buy program.
Giving early adopters such easy, unfettered access to the somewhat untested OS was a bold move by Microsoft. The company had to know that people like those who work at PC Magazine would be among the first to test-drive this new installation option.
