iTunes and Vista Non-Simpatico

I'm not sure who's at fault here, but it seems iTunes and Vista aren't altogether compatible, and Apple is warning users to wait before upgrading to the new Windows. Of course Apple isn't Vista's biggest fan and wouldn't mind if the OS just dried up and blew away. And Microsoft, especially with the Zune in tow, wouldn't mind if iTunes just dried up and blew away.

Regardless of who blew it, the problem should be straightened out in a few weeks.
