Using Windows Vista RC1

I couldn't resist trying out the latest release of Windows Vista so I decided to download Vista RC1 on Friday and installed it on my second partition yesterday. I'm really liking it so far, especially since it finally allows me to use Media Center on my Xbox 360. The obvious advancements over XP are the brand new interface, the enhanced security and the decision to change the names of half the standard applications.

Vista measures your PC's performance level with what's called a 'base score' so you know what programmes you're able to run at a quick glance on a scale of 1 to 5. My PC scored a 4.2 which is more than I expected. I'll probably post up some more thoughts in a couple of days when I've had more time to explore the wonders of Vista.
