Office 2007 Compatibility Pack Seems to Work
I know that our initial meeting several people had discussed how slow the Office 2007 Compatibility Pack was at converting docx, xlsx, and pptx files. I have recently installed the fully release of that program on four different computers and the conversion times seem very reasonable, 3-10 seconds. Can someone else install the currently released version and verify this? It seems to work very well and if so this could allow us to hold off on upgrading academic units to office 2007 while still giving them the ability to open those files.http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=941B3470-3AE9-4AEE-8F43-C6BB74CD1466&displaylang=en

SCF Software Detailed Vista Problems
Here are details on some of the problems with Vista in the SCF. I will update this doc, as new info becomes available. 1. AutoCAD 2007: 2. No official HP Printer driver for the HP 9050 B&W printer.

No official word from Maple on a fix. 5. SAS 9.1.3 also does not work in Vista, No official word from SAS on a fix. 6. Keyclient from Sassafras sofwtare has erradict behavior under Vista, such as loading/unloading randomly and not reporting software usage. Daniel Kuwahara
