Anybody had a chance to put it through the paces? I'm gonna be working with it this week for a client, just wondered what anyone thought. I never bothered to read up, because I'll not be using it on my own machines. Just curious if 'Longhorn' was worth the wait. Nothing I've heard so far makes it sound as if it is, but I haven't seen it yet.. (And btw, any chance we could get a Tech forum under the Culture category?)

Yeah, my girlfriend's dad just bought a laptop with Vista on it. I cringed when I heard it, but he'll mainly be using it for word processing, so I guess it doesn't really matter for him. Personally, I'll be waiting six months to a year before I upgrade to Vista, most likely. I want to give Microsoft a chance to work out all the bugs first. I've heard that it has really good virus protection and the updates are going to be very good. Don't really know a whole lot about it, either. I'll read up some and get back to it. A tech forum sounds like a magnificent idea, by the way. Edit: two random words in the middle of a sentence were taken out

Im on windows vista right now and its pretty cool but certain programs online arent updated, so they arent compatable with vista, and they might not be for up to six to twelve months depending on the program. but other than that vistas great!
