vista info

Does anyone know where I can get documentation that descrides all of the new features and enhancments that comes with Vista.

Hey,
A lot of stuff is restricted to beta only people, but a good start is www.microsoft.com/windowsvista. That's got *plenty* of stuff on there. However, to sum it up nicely:
a.. Better Security Features, including a better implementation of administrative accounts versus limited accounts, parental controls, and updated firewall and related features. a.. Better Usability, including faster on/off, desktop searching to make it easier to find your stuff, and more multi-media features such as video and TV. a.. Better Connectivity, including easier connections and synchronization to mobile devices, Internet services, cameras, and recording and playback devices.

There's not much documentation in existence yet, Geek. Most of the authors are writing as they go, and changing as Vista changes. :-}
I'm going over there where Zack said... maybe I can get some more docs too.

Aye, you've got a lot of really opinionated views on your blog about Vista, and to be honest I think that's absolutely great. Better to have an experienced view from someone who knows their stuff rather than a dire walkthrough about new features on a manufacturer website :o)
