Vista's Second Chance
These days, after I got my hands on one of the Vista laptop here in the office I’m trying to maximize its potential. I know I'm now diving and becomng one of the minorities now; some of you may mock me since I use Vista. But actually, I have tried this thing you called beast since its beta releases. Though at first it wouldn't make a promising look, but now I can say that I have safe bet on this OS.
With it's first announcement of the Service Pack 1 release, I think Windows Vista would make a good choice for newly desktop system. I know I had experience one myself. Windows Update improves many things that early Vista release lack of. Still, is it enough to convince user to change their mind about Vista.
Been trying those Windows Live Apps and I can say that so far so good. The Live Mail was okay, the Live Messenger though a bit bulky seems nice too. Unfortunately, I can't connect Live Writer to this weblog. But I think this is a Movable Type problem since I do experience this on other stand-alone blog editor.
Why the sudden change Pat? You know, I still use XP on daily basis, but still, I want to have new perspective on Vista other than what other people think about. It's like giving your ex-girlfriend a second chance in relationship, probably they would do better this time around, and I wrote this with an optimistic feeling around this issue.
