I did -- they ignored me, unless a week isn't long enough to read & respond.

Well, unless someone from high up in Samsung reads these groups and is
willing to give you the information, there is no way to find out. Many hardware devices, I fear, will be abandoned - just as when Windows XP was introduced. The companies will use this as an opportunity to try to get you to buy new hardware. -- Regards, Richard Urban Microsoft MVP Windows Shell/User (For email, remove the obvious from my address) Quote from George Ankner: If you knew as much as you think you know, You would realize that you don't know what you thought you knew!

No, I meant that I *emailed* them.
I hope they realize that if they "abandon" me, the new printer I buy ABSOLUTELY WON'T BE A SAMSUNG. I'd expect the same would go for most people and the brand of printer they use. I realize manufacturers can't just spend tons of time writing new drivers for older printers, but, there should be a liberal cutoff -- say 3-5 years since the date of discontinuance.

RC-1 does not contain all the hardward drivers that the manufacturers plan
to release to MS in time for them to be avaialable at the time of the RTM release. "jwardl" wrote in message news  No, I meant that I *emailed* them.

Samsung CLP-500
Fair enough... I'd just like to know if there WILL be a CLP-500 driver, and
when. Would be nice to test/(drive) Vista more or less fully functional. Not only does this help work out the bugs, it also helps in making the buying decision for Vista when it goes public. Also makes Samsung's geekier customers (those of use testing Vista) more comfortable with the Samsung brand, and more likely to stick with them in the future. Maybe a posting on their website as to their plans on this would be helpful. "JW" wrote in message ...
