I post a lot in these forums so I thought people might be interested in our
review of Windows Vista:

We have just posted our 72-page, 200+ screenshot (Part 1) review of
Microsoft Windows Vista, ActiveWin's largest and most in-depth review in ten
years. In the review, we have broken down the information into 28 different
sections, including (but not limited to): Windows Activation, Pricing,
Installation, Daily Usage, Media Center, Windows Mail, DirectX 10, Gaming,
Defender, IE 7, ReadyBoost, Developer Technologies, Sidebar, Windows Media
Player 11, and much much more. Moreover, we have included respective
screenshots where applicable.

very nice article...
now, any way we can do something about the ridiculous amount of scummy
popups on the website?
come on guys... even with a popup blocker, the fact that so many are trying
to open makes me leave the site in disgust before i finish reading anything

the article incorrectly states that no dx10 cards are out yet. the 8800
series (gtx and gts) from nvidia are dx10
and have been available for a while now

It's out of my hands, otherwise there would no be any.

Yes, but I don't think NVIDIA has released the drivers to support the
DX10, nor is there any software (yet) to take advantage of it.

The 8800GTX is a speed demon, though!
