Finding Certified for Windows Vista Devices

Ever in need to search for a Certified for Windows Vista device? I've got the site just for you. A few weeks ago I needed to find some Certified for Windows Vista devices in a specific category: printers. I was directed by a friend to the Windows Vista Hardware Compatibility site where they offer a searchable and categorized database for both Certified for Windows Vista devices and Works with Windows Vista devices. Check it out. I found exactly what I was looking for.

I also stumbled upon the "Look for the Logo" Gadget for Windows Sidebar which allows you to search for Certified for Windows Vista devices right from your desktop. Even better, the gadget was developed by gadget master Donavon West.

2 great resources for Certified for Windows Vista devices!

    Actually, I AM looking for such a device. To be more precise, I need a (not too expensive) SCSI controller for my Vista x64. Now, the Hardware Compayibility site returns an incredibly large list...

    Windows Vista Hardware Compatibility List

    The Windows Vista Hardware Compatibility List is currently only compatible with Internet Explorer 6 and above. We apologize for the inconvenience."

    When it can be accessed by other browsers let me know. This type of thing is unacceptable in this day and age.

    Yipes, what a wreck of a page. I see nothing that isn't easily implemented in other browsers, and it's still not terribly useful in IE7. Not only that, but I failed to find devices with the Works with Vista logo on the box -- and I've got them sitting on my desk. (note, you mentioned "Certified" but not "Works with", the latter being an important category.)

    An incomplete, hard to navigate list doesn't really help anyone, sorry to say.

    Maybe I'm missing something, but is there a centralized location for connecting to Microsoft's various partners, particularly when it comes to special use groups? (For instance, could this be linked to http://ampalliance.org/, the pro audio group, or other similar vertical markets?)
