[Rd] Windows Vista Issues

[Mark Difford]

Hi Dominick,

No offence intended, but I have been running R (presently 2.5.1.patched) on
a Vista (Home Basic) machine without a hitch since March 2007.  Initially I
had to turn off "User Account Control" to install new packages, but that was
a known issue.  I still run it that way, though it's not necessary anymore
(to have a truly smooth R).  You really don't need it switched on if you
have decent anti-virus stuff &c.

Regards,
Mark Difford.
