So the public beta is finally out, and I’ve managed to snatch a copy of the 64 and 32 bit editions despite the overloaded servers. I haven’t got much time to play about with it since running it in VMWare is quite slow, I don’t know if its since I only assigned it 512Mb of ram or something else. Its very pretty on first glances I have to say, but from my albeit limited experience the whole security push seems to be improved but for us geeks I guess it will become annoying after a while.
Its quite similar to the Mac confirm thing they’ve got going on. Saying this is a restricted option do you want to continue etc etc. I also learned that it is a VERY BAD THING to assign all your physical memory to a VMWare machine and will cause your PC to crash. Since I start work tomorrow and need to format my laptop fairly quickly I won’t get time to play with Vista for the next few days so until then I’ll hold off on any more judgements
