Chucked the Vista muddleware in the trash and stuck Win7 RC on it. Runs sweet as, and now I can press windows+P and 1 click to set up a projector, or shift click an icon on the task bar to launch another instance, swap windows on mouseovers! Lovely. or direct downloads from any browser to a downloads library, or make a library called websites. The upgrade went flawlessly. System seems as stable as.
