Link: Apple: ITunes Users Should Wait on Vista
Apple Inc. is urging some iPod and iTunes users to hold off on upgrading computers to Windows Vista, warning that the iTunes music software may not work well with the new operating system from rival Microsoft Corp.
Apple said iTunes may work with many Vista computers, but the company knows of some compatibility problems and recommends that users wait until it resolves the issues with an iTunes update in the next few weeks.
Update: Apple has posted a tech note on the Vista/iTunes incompatibility.

Apparently Apple has posted a fix. http://www.gottabemobile.com has a link to the download.
Meh, I understand the temptation of the headline, but this is more the fault of Apple abusing APIs for things like window painting.
I agree that this is going to get hurt Apple. They should do something quickly.
Totally possible; it’s difficult to know the technical details from our vantage point outside the slaughterhouse. But if you provide an API there’s a reasonable expectation it’ll work from one version of the OS to the next.
