Windows Vista Installation
So, this week Windows Vista Business became available on MSDNAA (the MS student program) and because I unfortunately still have a handful of programs that require Windows only, I downloaded it and installed it in a virtual machine this weekend.
While installing, I took screenshots (hint to Parallels programmers: This function needs a keyboard shortcut) and published them as a flickr photoset.

So far, it doesn’t feel very special yet, but I will click around a little more, and after I played with it in the VM long enough, I might consider updating my XP instance in Boot Camp. Allegedly, installing Vista with Boot Camp works flawlessly, but I am not sure about updating an existing copy of XP. If anyone has experience with that, let me know!
Is it just me, or does the visual design of Vista make you feel like you are drowning in a swamp.
Yeah, that’s all very, very fuzzy. While this is probably a feature, not a bug, I can’t quite pretend I love it either
