Got me copy of Vista installed ... Vista Home Premium.

Havin a ball, no real "problems" so far ... back in a tick, just fillin me coffee cup up.

Why?
Had a look at it the other day, but i can only just understand XP
So decided to stay with XP and wait!

I'm extremely interested to know what you think Mucks once you've had a play

Yep ... and it's a fun "game" too ...


I popped the DVD in the drive, just to have a look-see, and carried on the install there & then ... It saved all MyDocuments and a couple other folders in to one folder called Windows.old ... and yes, it was a clean install. Nice to have all me "stuff" in one place.

Got me Firefox & Thunderbird loaded, that helps me with the familiarity bit, the radio buttons for the smillies are 3d indented ... nice.

Need new AV, but as my subs for KAV are due next month I may just opt for an upgrade to KAV6 ... was gonna try NOD32 but it seems they are somewhat behind on Vista.

Downloaded the 50mb drivers for my Logitech MX1000 mouse ... yep, 50MB ... who says MS have bloated software ... what the feckin hell do I need 50mb for ???

Was nicely surprised that the "gadgets" has a weather station for ... Southport.

I do have 2 unknown devices ... need to pop over to nVidia and see what they are.

I have left all the bells-n-whistle on ... no performance degrade as far as I can see.

It is quite intuitive and familiar at the same time.


Next.

do you have the areoglass on?
any screenshots for us?

Hasta la Vista go get em mucks>>>>>

Yep ... full blown aero ... err, how does one take a screenshot ... one sec ... here you go.

How much are Microsoft paying you Muckshifter to advertise their software

Seriously though it will be interesting to see how you get on before i decide to change over on the Laptop, after all i can just about get round XP OK now, but have been offered a free upgrade to Vista

Nope, no pay here, had to buy it ...


I have one snag at the moment ...

... bugger.

Looking fancy
