Dreams, I don't have time to read unforunately but my wife was VERY impressed by it all & is interested so it looks like we may be getting one this year

good point Bremen, your correct in what you say but my client asked for VISTA to be removed due to other issues & just didn't like it so I put XP on which they find easier to use & its a lot faster too. The client wanted the laptop ready for today as she went on vacation so needed a lot of books by today, hence the haste, LOL. The client was d/l from fictionwise and I too d/l from it on various computers with the VISTA laptop the only one having trouble with EPUB files. I edited the filetypes & defaults to epub but still no joy?
The VISTA issue was the fact that the files came down as a zip folder with all the files in whereas on all other OS they came down as one EPUB file. My trouble was time limitation and panicking client so I'd really like to get to the bottom of it for future use & other clients

ctol you may have something there! it could be the way the fictionwise site stores the epub files maybe? My son has got a VISTA laptop which I'll borrow to try another site. Suggestions are welcome for free d/l's to test it

Bremen does your epub files come down as one epub file or a zipped folder?
