From what I've seen of Vista, I don't like it. I especially HATE, and I
really don't hate much, the MSN search on IE7 that can't be turned off. The
All Programs part of the Start menu really sucks, as it stays open to the
last place visited, doesn't display long program names, and has things on it
that most people won't ever use!

And don't get me started on Explorer!

As it is, if I ever user Vista, I'll be turning almost everything to classic
mode!

MS seems to have made changes, just for the sake of making changes where no
changes were necessary.

As of right now, Vista sucks the big one!

It's in early Beta, and things will change between now and RTM. BUT "as

Which reminds me of a couple of things I did like that were new to
Vista!

MS's public web server was set up in OE by default! ["Default User" was
the default user name, anon...@discussions.microsoft.com, the default
email addy]

And not only that, but OE can be set up in options to bottom post!

OE still had the version number of 6.x not 7, like IE.

And Booby, I had already change it back yesterday, once I realized that
I forgot to set it up.

But that Booby for ya, he is always behind the times!

It can change to google or yahoo or some others by clicking the magnifying
glass and selecting the search you would like to use!
