    Just testing the cam before going to the festivities....

    Damn flash not working, sure hope it's just batteries.

    Still getting used to the dual monitor setup.
    Works fine in Pro 64 but in Vista only the primary monitor will display the backround pic...the other is just baby blue.

    Display properties are spread all over hell and gone in Vista, the all-in-one "Display" icon is gone from the Control Panel and the various functions have been distributed amonst other applets.
    Seems like a giant step in the wrong direction to me.

    Anyway, barbeque beckons....

    There's also the public beta (beta 2).

    Clocker which version of vista are you running?
    The next version after beta 2, beta 3 (leaked), is supposed to be a LOT less buggy than beta 2, maybe you should give it a shot if you're using beta 2 still...

    I'm running the 32 bit Beta2 direct from MS.
    My understanding is that buying the disk (rather than downloading) puts me in line to receive the RC1 when it's available.

    I've read that the Beta3 is faster and better than what I have but I'm slowly coming to grips with the version I've got.
    I really like the GUI and the way that windows subtly transition in and out...XP looks flat and static to me even after just this little bit of time.

    That is true but there's way too many annoyances with beta 2.
    How do you deal with the constant permission popup things that you get, or did you disable that?

    I disabled those right away. It's easy.
    The bitching about driver signing, too.

    I could probably live with Vista as my primary OS right now were it not for the damn indexing, which grinds on my Raptors constantly.
    I got so spoiled by the i-Ram's dead silence that regular HDDs make a real racket to my newly tuned ear.

    That says a lot about both of us, I suppose.

    At work I have to resist the urge to tell customers that I just spent more on a friggin case than they want to spend on their entire PC.

    You gots to pay to play, as the saying goes.

    My x2 4400 arrived, BTW.
    I might swap it out tomorrow or wait a week for the rest of the new stuff to arrive and do it all at once.
