Windows Vista

I chose to uninstall Windows Vista today. While it was a complete and functional operating system for my day-to-day use, it was a tad on the slow side. There was also a few permissions annoyances that seem to be not fully code-complete yet. By the looks of it Windows Vista should be released solid as a rock. I fully expect the speed issues I was experiencing to go away. I would encourage you to check out Vista if you're in a position where you could reformat a computer and use it exclusively for a few days.

We have a student laptop program here at MSOE that allows me to drop my computer off at our IT desk and pick it up in a half hour with a brand new image installed on the machine, so it's like the first day of school all over again. It's nice.
