After about 20 previous tries I decided to once again re-try installing the new Windows Vista RTM tonight. I had tried installing it numerous times before but the installation would always freeze on me. I don't blame Vista itself for the freezes because it turned out the first time I burnt the image I burnt it on an angry dvd that my drive didn't agree with.

Heres my first impressions:

• My favorite thing so far is the Alt - Up Arrow shortcut when navigating through folders. Its a lot more intuitive than Alt-V-O-U!
• My computer scored a whoping 1 on the Vista O Meter because my video card is old! Besides maybe playing around with WPF (after WCF) I have no reason to upgrade it.
• My old D drive is now my E drive.
• My old E drive is now my D drive.
• .NET 3.0 is already installed. IIS7 is not.
• Nero now works with Vista.
