Until the other day (and I haven't installd a bloody thing!), Sleep worked fine with Vista, where it didn't with XP. Now every time I close the lid, instead of waking, my MBP restarts when I open it, and Vista complains that it didn't shut down properly. PITA!! Almost makes me want to switch to OSX (almost...)

Even with that driver you found to replace the "official" Vista driver, the eraser worked but the inking was of poorer (more jagged) quality. Much as I'm temped to return to XP the thought of reinstalling all the programs is daunting.
