printers and scanners might have to wait for a while..

graphics, sound card, mobo should run fine with the stock drivers that comes in WinVista..
alternatively you can download the beta driver from the manufacturers site. ATi's just released Vista certified driver

jokerz...

funny thing is, i cant seem to use vista for more than 2-3 hours. i will usually boot back to xp/ubuntu after lunch time.
Vista's interface kind of..confuse me..too colourful i guess.. :S

I'm using the RC1 now. So far so good.

One thing I notice though, the wifi signal weakens when I use Vista compared to XP. In XP I can get 5 bars but when it comes to Vista, I get only 1 or 2.
