PC World published [URL="http://www.pcworld.com/article/id,127446-c,vistalonghorn/article.html"]an overview of Windows Vista RC2[/URL]. [INDENT][I]Boot times and the speed with which dialogs, menus, program windows,and folders open under Vista are also better than in XP--as long asyou're running modern hardware with Vista-class video.[/I]
[/INDENT]Yes, the boot times on my Gateway Tablet PC are fast.
[INDENT][I]The User Account Control (UAC) security feature, which seeks yourconfirmation before it will allow various programs to run or dialogboxes to open, still rankles.[/I]
[/INDENT]Yes, the UAC can get in the way of setting up the system. [INDENT][I]Utilities, especially apps that relate to files, are often incompatiblewith new versions of Windows; and I suspect that such softwareincompatibility could be a problem with this operating system.[/I]
[/INDENT]I am fortunate enough to have limited software on the Tablet PC and so this is not a problem. Yet, software compatibility and driver issues will slow down the acceptance of the OS - just like the initial slow acceptance of XP.
The good news is that I was able to setup the Sprint PC5740 on the Tablet PC. The card must be activated on a Windows XP machine using the Spring Connect software then it can be moved to the Vista machine.
