The Good
Yes ! About time n all. Resource monitor a lot more comprehensive than before. Thought I saw a netstat type of sockets open by process id but cant find it now ?
Browsing folders/IE a lot faster.
Start menu is what XP should have been.
Indexing Options laid open to all
Tablet PC input
iSCSI looks promising but I got the feeling it'll be a balls up.
The Bad
Memory usage
Aero very disappointing not as thrilling as I expected. Not being biased but Beryl literally knocks your socks off.
Sidebar waste of space and urrrrgly. Yahoo gadgets is way better with a ton of gadgets to go with it.
No fault of microsoft but Nvidia drivers REALLY suck, all my 3d benches are down
Well actually I need to understand and tweak this area better - I'm still not sure whats going on here
Neutral
Systems architecture is still very much windows XP I'm not sure if this is good or bad however it feels like very much of a rewrite gets a
from me tbh. Not a bad effort at all that should set the foundations for a very competitive OS in the future.
Sys admin tools and raw access to group/local policies et al still like XP... Reading up on additions to gpmc.
I'm not brave enough to use Vistas media tagging index(/db).

Offline folders : fixed, better or worse anyone know ?
