Windows Vista - Beta 2

I recently reconfigured my laptop to be dual bootable with Windows XP and the new Windows Vista Ultimate (Beta 2). After first trying the 64-bit edition (to check out the capabilities of my laptop's AMD Turion 64 processor), I re-formatted and installed the 32-bit version. This is because many (most?) device drivers are not yet available in a 64-bit version; so, while the OS did load, I didn't have any sound, card reader, etc. with the initial installation!

The Vista OS does have a completely different "feel" than XP; one which I think is both refreshing and functional. Simply, I now prefer using Vista...

Currently, downloads of the Beta 2 release are available from Microsoft here.
