I am a network admin of 2 large domains. I haven't got a copy of business yet
but I have Home Premium on my new laptop.
I am pretty scared about trying to support both Vista and XP in the same
domain because for some reason Microsoft decided that "different" has to be
"better" and changed all the folder locations.
I use Mandatory Roaming Profiles. I DON'T WANT my users to see their
profiles folder because everything in it Deletes when they logoff and if they
save there it is gone. However, instead of My Documents (what was wrong with
My Documents???) they have the entire Profiles folder on the Desktop
instead???
The BIG problem with this is that I can't create a Shortcut to My Documents
because each user has a different location.
Is there no more My Documents Redirection? I have 3000 users and don't want
regular roaming profiles as I change the mandatory profile depending on what
software they need access to.
Please tell me Business is more like XP.
Also, what is up with all the extra "clicking" needed in Vista. It seems
that they have added at least 2 clicks to every task. Eg. Changing
Permissions was only one window, now you have to click "edit" twice. Also,
where are all the shortcuts?
Can't say I am impressed. I like the new bells and whistles but I think XP
is far superior as far as supporting and productivity.
