Windows Vista? - Spitfire - 06-21-2006
Who else here is now running a copy of Vista Beta 2? I was quite surprised once i had installed it. Its come a long way since the very very first leaked version i tried. Everything on my pc driver wise works! (im running it on my old desktop. Athlon XP, 1gb ram, 200gb SATA hdd, Radeon 9800pro) and it runs quite fast and smooth.
It will take a while to get used to changing settings as everything seems to have changed now :| Has anyone else installed Vista on a test PC? The only thing im yet to test is games confused:

Being that I don't have a test PC, negative, although I would love to try it.

I hear it's pretty good.
Friend downloaded it and said it looks really nice, but uses a ****load of system memory.

im using it as we speak xD on a 700mhz with a TNT2 video card.. 256 ram, it runs at the same speed as it used to with windows xp, but looks ALOT cooler, the new windows style is to make everything look like glass, its pretty cool
actually i use ie7, wmp 11, msn 8, windows live mail.. i love the new microsoft stuff xD

yeah, i tried the beta 1 but it didnt support any games and really pissed me off, but i know beta 2 is very good. Do you guys know when they are going to release the complete version of vesta?

'07. I THINK June. I'm pretty sure I'm wrong, though.

Consumer availability Jan 2007. Business Nov 2006 apparently.

I found it... This is what happens in Vista when you try to delete a shortcut
