Cool things for windows vista




















Don't be afraid. This is one of the reasons why Jenny Lam is my hero her team at Microsoft really did a great job on this. This kind of improved experience throughout the OS makes Windows Vista much more pleasurable. While there are plenty of people who use our software to make XP look a lot like Vista, there's no substitute for the real thing.

A lot of us have big giant cases under our desk. In fact, in the age of the monitor having the USB ports, the case is getting farther and farther away from us. So the days of being able to simply listen to the hard drive crunching are long over. And if the CPU meter wasn't pegged then I'd go and look at the case to see if I could hear the hard drive crunching.

On Vista, the task manager will tell you how much of your hard drive bandwidth you're using up and tell you what process is accessing the disk. On Windows XP, if your system runs out of handles, programs won't launch and weird things start to happen. There's no warning message about it. Almost nobody knows what a user handle is.

On Windows XP, users would just reboot their machine. People who know what handles know how to kill them off. I wrote an article " How to keep Windows XP stable " that goes into this.

Flip through all your open files and windows with a simple click of your mouse using Windows Flip 3DA—you're just one click away from everything you're working on. I'm sure there will be compatible decoders by October. How did they miss the new Media Center? Dekoth Gawd. Joined Jul 25, Messages I still don't get what everyone is hyping about the Win7 Gui..

There is little difference between it and Vista, other then the fact that the 7 designer apparently had something against a rounded task bar instead of the square ugly he put in. I wouldn't call this 18 things Vista doesn't do, there are only a few things in that article that vista doesn't actually do. Most are just improvements on vista.

Don't get me wrong, overall I like 7, but I think the interface was a small step backwards. Joined Dec 19, Messages Joined May 27, Messages 2, Shake 'em away Ever had 10 Notepad, two Powerpoint and 50 Outlook windows open?

Because it sucks ass when you have Explorer windows and it takes like 15 seconds to get the right one open.
