I never did switch to Vista (I managed to stay with XP). I agree with most of your comments. I really like the aero shake also (one of my favorite features). I initially had the same problem as you with the taskbar but with aero shake I found I did not have any problems figuring out which were opened (it really did not matter - I just moved the cursor over the icons). What I really liked though is I did not have to install any drivers. I purchased Windvd9 to play Blu Ray and it just worked (make sure you do all the updates). No more loading all the codecs, drivers etc. What I did not like was that as soon as I added antivirus etc it slowed down. It's not good enough to get me to switch back from Ubuntu but at least I don't hate using it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2298369453847118785.post-77008999870843344002009-07-13T08:35:49.853-07:002009-07-13T08:35:49.853-07:00Hmm , i guess not with all software.. i had installed a selected few software which i tested with vista and windows 7 . for some reason win 7 didnt give any errors for those particular softwares but vista did.
