Fun little bugs and observations of Vista

So I've been messing about with the new build of Vista for a day or two now.

Nice, very fast and alot more stable than the last build I was running.

Still frustrated by my inability to remotely join a domain using VPN but apart from that all good.

Try right clicking the start menu and checking out the name of the Windows Media tool bar - gave me a chuckle.

Also the performance of anything network related can be improved by disabling the autotuning on the network cards - at best guess I'd say 30-40% net perf increase alone.

Dell seems very reluctant to release any beta drivers for their hardware - which 4-6months out from release is a worry.

Also the rating system is funny - my laptop is lightening fast (avg 4.6 score in the perf rep) but because Aero performs at a 2.0 thats my score - MS might want to consider changing their scoring system or alot of hardware manufacturers might get a little upset ;)

Great new site - well done guys!
