I just wanted to clarify that this topic I introduced to this list was not to act as a poli/techno endorsement of MSFT or their products.
Me, I know I will come across Vista with clients in the near term future. I like to be ahead of the curve on every tech topic I can when I sit at the conference table with clients. And having hands on usability experience with Vista ahead of my clients was strategically important to me. So since I had already gone and set part of my own house on fire, I figured I'd just throw a little breadcrumb trail out there from behind the curtain of flames for the other few who just might have to do as I did. I did not want to introduce tech evaluations of one product vs another product. What do they say: Know thy enemy. Keep your enemies closer than your friends. Know the con to avoid the con.
