Anyone tried this out?
I've installed it since i need to test some software for vista.
Drivers are an issue, and the vista 32bit nvidia ones don't work. Some other guy had luck with 64bit ones with a 7900.
Going to try the 64bit version out later.
You can enable aero too ;) but not got that working yet as i assume it won't work till i have drivers installed, i do have the vista theme on it.
From a server perspective it looks pretty good. They have improved and added quite a few new features, and the windows firewall actually has some decent settings. I think i will put this on my server box when i make it.
If you want to try it you can get it free from...
