Vista RC1, yes its legal and legit Options

check it out guys, so far the RC1 has been going very nicely. No bugs found as of yet (by me personally) its very fast, and the color schemes and graphics are nicely done.

^ note: that would not be a leagal copy.

a few cool features, i have RC1 on my laptop at work, runs good considering my laptop is a 1.4 ghz celeron with 512mb ram, cool part is it runs decent on that low of a system, but I dont get the aero stuff, my ALT-TAB is pretty standard. vista does let you use a usb drive to exspand system memory, my HD is pretty small so it uses 826mb of my 1gig usb flash drive, and there are noticable gains. also the file indexing is pretty slick, makes searching for files very quick. gadgets are sweet, I have a city temp one, cpu monitor, C drive monitor, memory monitor, mini outlook, battery monitor, wireless connectivity monitor, and IP/NIC info. (I kinda went overkill on em i know but does not really slow the pc down by having them there just XML docs.)

RDC is diff, kinda annoing with all the new popups and the "enter the user name/password before you connect" crap since I use it so much but no big deal.

I have duel monitors the laptops 15" and a 20.1" the sidebar (gadgets) is moved to the big screen and it handels the 2 screens without issue, also kinda cool for slower systems, when i lanch a game it drops the big screen color quality way down to run the game better.

IE7 is crap needs to be patched up like crazy, works but does not support stuff worth crap.

Office 07 is very nice, way better and much more functions.
