About time! What I don't like: * Windows Search - takes some getting used to and isn't as robust as it used to be, also can be a pain when attempting to search in a directory (as windows search is integrated into every windows explorer menu) * Sidebar - useless on laptops Also, is it me or does Vista appear to cache items in memory at every opportunity? Well first off I have to say, Welcome to Vista! :D

We’ve been testing Vista out for some time on our laptops and while it has been a bumpy ride, there are some nice things:

The good points I like:

* Suspend to RAM (Suspend as opposed to Hibernate) is much, much easier and quicker
* EFI boot support – great for my Macbook Pro for when I’m fed up with OS X
* Windows Search – makes searching for applications in your start menu, let alone documents, much easier
* Add/Remove Programs (or Programs and Features as its now known) seems to update better
* Performance Monitor – gold! About time!

What I don’t like:
* Windows Search – takes some getting used to and isn’t as robust as it used to be, also can be a pain when attempting to search in a directory (as windows search is integrated into every windows explorer menu)
* Sidebar – useless on laptops

Also, is it me or does Vista appear to cache items in memory at every opportunity?
