P2CMS and Vista ... Business only???

Just bought a brand new Windows laptop for the sole purpose of dumping and managing P2 cards in the field ... Trying to download the P2CMS software from Panasonic, but doesn't install. Looking at the system requirements on Panasonic's website, it seems like the "business" version of Vista is required. My Laptop came with "Home Premium" installed. Can they be serious? Do I really need to spend $150 to upgrade to be able to install this software?

Thanks, Johannes

The P2 CMS product page says it doesn't work for ANY version of Vista. The P2 Viewer only works with Business/Ultimate versions of Vista.

I am looking for some sort of solution. I am not sure how I am going to manage my media. I am using PP CS3. As of now, the best solution for me has been render Quicktime "preview-quality" videos (using the same name as the MXF file), and then apply keywords to them in Adobe Bridge (Bridge doesn't read/modify MXF files). Then I can easily find the clips I want. When i find the Quicktime I want, I then go to my contents folder and find the MXF file that shares the same name, and import that clip into Premiere. THIS CAN'T BE THE BEST SOLUTION!
