Windows Vista

As if I didn't have enough fun stuff to play with, the first Windows Vista beta was released last week.  I put it on my little laptop first, where it ran very well, but I was disappointed that the new visuals didn't run on the crappy video card it has.  So, last night, I put the 64-bit version on my PC, which has a recent ATI card on it.  Everything runs great on it and it's quite beautiful.  Both installs I've done have been utterly trouble free.  It brought back pleasant memories of installing the 95 beta and waiting with anticipation through the "Starting windows for the first time" screen, which always reminded me of that cereal commercial..."taste it again... for the first time".

This evening, I'll be putting my apps back on the PC, so we'll see if I run across any problems there.
