I'm sure you can check your favorite online/offline bookstores, too. And of
course you could always download information from MS and print it out.

You can download the Vista Product Guide from here:

To open in XP, the Vista Guide has to have some assistance.
First download and install Microsoft Core XML Services 6.0,
then Microsoft XPS Essentials Pack from
http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/xps/viewxps.mspx
Then download the 24.7 MB "WVPG RTM.xps" file from
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...bf-4823-4a12-afe1-5b40b2ad3725&DisplayLang=en
and the Windows Vista Product Guide will open in Windows XP.

Worth looking at, and perhaps purchase at a bookstore, is David Pogue's
"Windows Vista - The Missing Manual," an 848 page O'Reilly book:

release over the next 2 months.

Publishing) and the aforementioned Vista for Dummies are some
