Beta

Vista : against the wall

People from various places have asked me about upgrading to Vista. Most know I have been and still am running a Beta version.

There are things I really like about Vista. It's been very stable, especially for a Beta version. I love the new Windows Mail: It has a built in SPAM filter and seems to do a more than passable job of catching most SPAM even before setting rules.

More Vista

It's been several days since the initial install. I've upgraded to the 5728 build from the 5600. They fixed a few of the issues I was seeing. The problems with the resource intensivness of the OS seems to have been worked on a bit. I still have problems playing Mah Jong and using the Media Player at the same time. The music sounds slowed down a bit and gets crackly and the game gets 'stuck' for a few seconds at a time. I can't run anything else when I'm using the two programs together.
