Vista works and works really really well. I am extremely pleased with the security features and how "SOLID" it feels when you run apps etc. But more than 1 GB of ram, make sure you have a good video card to enjoy Vista in all its eye candy GLORY that they have included.
As for getting it, Microsoft is giving away RC1 for free on their website. It expires June 2007 - which is ample time to use it and buy a licensed copy. :)

[quote=Kamal;417095]nice one funky, how are you finding Vista ?? Do you have the final release or RC ? Care to share your laptop config ?[/quote] I like it so far, but I am having a problem with my vpn. So what I did was create a virtual machine and am running XP using my vpn (which I only use once every three weeks for call). I have Vista Enterprise (the final release) and my configs are: Dell Latitude D810 1 gig of ram Radeon X600 40 gig drive.
Runs like a champ! 8)
Re: So what's on your desktop today .....
mine is a tad sluggish since I have "shared" video memory.... but overall I love how stable it is
Re: So what's on your desktop today .....
[quote=Kamal;417264]mine is a tad sluggish since I have "shared" video memory.... but overall I love how stable it is[/quote] There are few other software incompatibilities like PcAnywhere and Symanctec Antivirus, but within the month there will be new versions of both for the enterprise. Other than that it's very stable, but I was able to blue screen it trying to install my vpn software. Which was a shock, but I have other methods to get in to where I work so it wasn't a show stopper!

And you're liking it? :lol: That would be the first & last 2 reasons I would not like it. Last because I would get rid of it instantly after it crashes for the first time. On my desktop I have win2k running for over 4 years without reinstalling, cleaning registry or doing anything of the kind. Not a single system crash. No blue screen ever. My lap was going on win2k like this for almost 3 years until the hdd failed :evil: But no system crashing, slowing down, anything. That's what I call stability ;) Going away from nt was the worst move microsoft ever made. And when I read about no backward compatibility planned from now on, I made a final decision. Next year I'm buying a mac :lol: Of course, if you're using your comp for watching movies, listening to music or writing text files, it probably doesn't matter. But if you need to use your comps power to the max... ffs, if the os needs 1gb of ram to run smoothly, it can't be good. you probably can't run anything memory consuming on it...

From a domain standpoint they have added a lot for system administrators. The print management console which is also in Windows 2003 R2 has now been brought to Vista, which is fantastic for me. No more logging on to a remote server to add a printer, I can just do it from my laptop and push it to several print servers at the same time. The 1gb of ram is a downside, but you don't have to have the eye candy if you don't want it, there is always classic which uses less resources and you can still tweak it to your liking. I do like the Aero interface though and it has been a bonus but it doesn't matter to me if it is there or not. My vpn software was going to be a given for me for not being compatible, but I had no idea it would blue screen. There are only three pieces of software that I was worried about when going to Vista, PcAnywhere, Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition and the Cisco VPN software. So far two out of three work for me now, Symantec released version 10.2 and it is installed and working as designed. PcAnywhere will have an update soon but it does still work with Vista (PcAnywhere Version 12). So these are not stopping points for me. I agree that Win2k is pretty robust but XP was better (for me) and I am sure that once the bugs are fixed in Vista (just like they were with XP and Win2k) that it will be robust as well.
