Build 5536...Pretty Slick

[Gary MCSE]

I like the new build.
It is much cleaner, faster and looks soooo much better overall.

Is it ready for RC 1?

It is a whole lot closer then Beta 2, thats for sure.

My Samsung priner now uses the correct drivers for it, although I needed to
install it from the manufacturers CD.

In the Beta 2 Build, the manufacturers CD would Blue Screen and I had
windows find a drfiver for it, which it used one for a Dell 1100 Laser
printer.

Considering that it is a Samsung Model ML-2010, I am somewhat confused but
happy considering how much faster this build of Vista Installed, with no
issues except for the printer which actually is not an error at all.

My major concern is Anti-Virus software.

I tried the Panda, the Trend Micro, the F Secure all which would not run
properly and because I already tried the Computer Associates Program I now
have nothing left to use for AV protection.

Maybe I will install my Windows One Care here also.

Any other ideas?

not even close to RC1 possible. Way too many bugs and stuff.
