Default Windows vista installed and uninstalled today

got a copy of the final release of vista ultimate (the top notch one), so i installed it, found it doesnt like my mobo driver disk, graphics card disk, network setup, isnt user friendly

and most of all if you dont like seeing "Are you sure...." every time you right click or do something, then windows vista isnt for you.

i tried installing some software and deleting useless crap, EVERYTHING was "how would you like to use this....", "you dont have permission to do this click continue for permission", "you have....." so i hit reset, formatted and snapped the disk.

the colours are nice, layout is an idea, functionality is like learning to drive a car with the indicator on the left hand side, reverse in the top left, front wheel drive with no power.....
ill install on another partition tomorrow and take screen shots, and examples (i have another copy of the disk)

im just gonna let everyone know what their getting into, so it might help if buying a laptop or PC and waiting for the vista models to come out instead of buying XP installed, getting free upgrade and having option of either if you dont like vista.

then again if i used it long enough it prob never go back to XP ever again.... who knows

btw vista and office isnt allowed to be sold until the 30th jan 2007.....
