Installed yesterday, 64 bit edition, works fine, no problems, but it takes about an hour.

Not aware of a great deal of difference, though.

Yeah I installed my 32bit version, it is a little quicker i think..

Ah ha! Nice one Sean, I've been waiting for this to be released! I hadn't seen any news myself.

IE7 in Vista has a terrible memory leak problem which eventually causes the context menus to stop working after prolonged use... I hope this is one of the things they've fixed!!

From what I have read Rich, there isnt alot of new features been added but all the nasty bugs which people have complained about have been fixed. I mean i have just bought a new computer and the fan was always on, since update last night, fans not comming on so I guess things are running much better.

..... or your fan is broken

Fans run by temp sensors which in the first instance of Win Vista were broken thermostats; i.e. the core sensor modules were definitely screwed. Like the USB interface. Back to Mac I think.

The only problem I have been having is from the new windows defender update. Wants to close my ATI graphics card software all the time. Right pain, but ive just noticed there is another defender update today so have downloaded that.

On the other hand my laptop has had no problems. But thats all vista ready, this computer is a bit older and I have upgraded alot of the components and upgraded it to Vista.
