Nine days ago, I installed Windows Vista on my main laptop. Thus far, I am extremely impressed. The time that the team took out to shore up the Fundamentals clearly shows. I have not had a single OS crash or program crash yet. Other than the June Yukon CTP, I have not found a single program yet that doesn't install and work as it did before. Omea Pro is providing 300+ blog feeds although the IE 7 RSS support is quite cool and useful for single blogs. Of special significance, is I doing full development on the machine with NUnit 2.2, CruiseControl, VS.NET, Zanebug on the 1.1 front with no issues. On the Whidbey front, I am even using a future unreleased Whidbey build (no not July) and again no problems. The really cool thing is that on this native machine, Vista is already clearly faster than XP and 2K3. So nine days in and all's good.
