First of all, I'd like to know how you got past the nVidia/nForce RAID problem.

Default Build 5728
I finally got around to installing the latest build and then giving it workout tonight.

There are some really nice features being incorporated right into the OS.

If Microsoft and/or the Vendors of my Devices will support the devices with stable drivers, I'm going to be looking forward to this upgrade when it's finally released. I don't think I'll be standing in line for it like I was for Windows 95 and 98, though. (For those, I was at the stores at midnight when they were officially released for sale.)

With XP, I was quite put off by the activation scheme and didn't move to it until just a couple of years ago...finally! (I still don't really like it, but, it's not posed any problems for me at all like I had feared it would.)

So, with such impressive additions and changes to Vista, I'm quite eager to see the final product firsthand.

Notice that a large portion is 'cached'.
