Mate Revy,
We had these eye candy on the Macs for ages. Vista is just playing a catch up game. |

Thambi, it is a full release version, I get them earlier than other as the organization I work for are Microsoft partners (we get them for free too) so am testing it out, it is pretty but there are many drivers missing for things I would need for example I cannot see my 800GB RAID drive set under Vista as there are no drivers for the RAID controller yet =(
Officially Vista is released, but it is going to ve Jan/feb before you can get it with a new PC or buy it etc.
You may notice one of the screens I have open is Excel 2007, I have Office 2007 Pro loaded as well, it has some really nice features. |

Just note Vista loves RAM some features (like the flip screen window switching above) will not even work without min 1 GB RAM =) (it will just turn the option off if you have less RAM).
But a lot of manufacturers now are offering free upgrades to vista, so you may be able to go ahead with the terminal services roll out and then do a mass upgrade if you have a pretty standardized setup. |

I havent worked with macs but did see a buddy do some nifty stuff a decade ago that windows just came up with.
I havent used Vista and most likely wont be for the next little while so you guys can iron out any kinks before peasants like me get a hold of it.
Looks neat revy! Edited By - tamilcanuck - 17 Dec 2006 17:32:31 GM |
