New Re: can't see my Vista workgroup
I presume you've looked at Finder and see no SHARED category of things in between the DEVICES and PLACES categories. On my Mac I can see my wife's Windows XP system and it's shared directories. I did nothing at all to make show up there. I'm running Leopard.

New It may be Vista's fault
but I don't care. Like I said, Apple is not in position to say "we don't support it". Their entire reputation hinges on "just working". If they were simply to tell me to wait for a fix, I'd accept it. They are swamped with calls at the moment (an hour on hold between two transfers), but they won't admit they have a problem. Well, guess what. When you don't live up to your reputation, there are consequences.
