Windows Vista Gets Sexy in Second Life

If you're wondering whether Windows Vista will be compatible with your Xcite cock, wonder no longer. The OS sees its official launch today, complete with a party at ten locations in Second Life. But as resident Kitten Lulu amusingly points out on her blog, about half of the 10 locations Microsoft has chosen for the virtual launch party (at 2pm SL time, featuring Praga Khan) are places frequented by paid cybersex escorts. Microsoft "Enthusiast Evangelist" Miel Van Opstal has more insight on just why the locations were chosen. In any case, if you think Vista might put some more "wow" in your Second Life sex life is, check it out. (SLurls here.)

i'd love to go but unless you have a reasonably new grahics card sl wont run on vista! - i have vista business and a radeon 9200 - sl runs perfectly well on xp but doesnt want to know on vista and ati arent doing any vista drivers pre 9500

(even though vista upgraded my drivers on initial install so i could still use multiple monitors)

i assume ms arent aware that vista and sl arent a match made in heaven

Last time I checked SecondLife on Vista, which admittedly was six month ago on Beta2, the problem was related to the lack of OpenGL support in my drivers.

I'll think about coughing up the cash for Vista... oh maybe in 2/3 years...

lol

Lawrence Linden published a workaround for this Vista and SL problem on the Lindens official blog.
