Have you found a goofy little feature that you like? Post it here. Maybe include how to access it.

I like that under admin tools/disk management were now able to resize partitions. No more partition magic.

yea no problem, had Ultimate version on two computers and deinstalled from both, now i'm trying to install it on my home pc for last 4 days with no success. :-|
it worked fine on my work pc and laptop but some essential programs were not working ... and 1GB of RAM for serious work is definitely not enough.
what else should i say ?
my home pc is 1.9 P4 with 1.5GB of RAM and 2x250GB disks, Gainward GeForce 6800GS 256MB RAM graphic card and still i have some ghost called "stdp.sys" which kicks me BSOD excatly at the point where new installation of Vista Ultimate should end and boot up.
:-|
PS: any clues? yea i checked google for stpd.sys but ... i'll come back later |

I dunno if it worked on old versions of Windows, but I like being able to resize my desktop icons by pressing ctrl and scrolling :)
And Windows+Tab is cool, way better than Alt+Tab! :)
Also, Ctrl+Alt+Del no longer brings up the Task Manager straight away, you have to go thru an extra menu. To bring up task manager press Ctrl+Shift+Esc - Saved me a lot of time once I figured that one out! :)

Well if you ever used windows 2000 or turned user switching off in XP youd have the same extra step. |

Heck i used Beta 2 and RC-1 6 months before the final version even came out, now thats a bit brave. But Beta 2 ran okay and RC-1 had no real issue for me. By RC-1 they even had the driver for my video input card (hooking camcorder or vcr to pc) out. |
