Well, Day 4, Vista is still shiny. I have not encountered any games so far that absolutly will not run. A few of the older games that did run on XP seem to have display issues with Aero turned on, but with it in classic mode they run alright.
So far the Aero interface doesn't seem to detract from games. This is the secondary PC so it only has a pci-express 6800 ultra card in it, But The frame rates in Far cry, Half life II, and F.E.A.R seem about the same. Will load BF 20-whateveritis and see how it does with that later on.
If you are in a work environment and you have a projector with a network port, the Network projector interface is frigging cool! 600 ft cat 6 runs to a projector with full motion video data? No problem!
Under System Tools, there is a launch icon for starting Internet explorer 7 without any browser help objects or add ins started. Possibly will be useful for some of you prone to infections.
Anyone have any other "pre vista" things they would want looked at? I'm in a "do things that might break OS loads" type of expermental mood
