So I am sitting in the Belfast Airport, drinking my StarBucks and waiting for my plane. My USB drive is connected with Windows Vista Beta 1 installed on it from last night. Get this. The install for Vista is painless and easy that I only had to answer three questions in the install and 2 could have been defaulted!! That's usability my friends. If you are expecting the fiasco of the build from last PDC, this is a whole different world. As said, install on a VPC is trivial and with 1280MB VPC, the performance is much, much better than last year's model, Excellent job (Longhorn) Vista Team!
