Technological frustrations

No, this is not a veiled spoiler for HP 7, this is a real and frustrating problem. When I began doing podcast like audio, I quickly found that I liked Adobe Audition 1.5, which I got grey market, and used that for a long, long time. When I began All Things Azeroth, I decided to try out the newer 2.0 version of the software. Now I find myself forced to look into regression back to 1.5, which ironically seems to work just fine under Windows Vista, as 2.0 is not seeing my expensive USB Mic, even though every other audio app I have on my PC does. From the research I have done in the last few days, I have come to the conclusion that Audition 2.0 is not compatible wit Vista in a lot of ways, so since I have no desire or willingness to go out and replace my mic, I have to go back to 1.5 for recording. I guess Adobe doesn't care for their users. Finally! They are Microsoft's equal in something.
