The troubles I had -- <br /><ul><br /><li>slow recovery from hibernation</li><br /><li>generally flakey graphics (the Dell laptop has a fairly standard graphics card) especially after emerging from hibernation</li><br /><li>reverting to completely unacceptable graphics (monochrome or 16 colours only) when connecting to a display projector</li><br /><li><span style="font-weight:bold;">far</span> too much protection; Vista won't let you do anything even if you do know what you are doing</li> <br /><li>slow to connect to WIFI (I don't know whether that is Vista's fault or the XPS's) </li><br /></ul><br />This does mean that until we get a new Windows Vista service pack, I won't be able to test WS5 on Vista.Mikehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08886050767288211304noreply@blogger.com
