Chaotic Cricket is on a distinguished road
Default

I have Windows Vista Ultimate 32bit edition, I was/am a beta tester. I have it on my Notebook/Desktop Replacement
acer 9810. Most things provided by Acer do not work you have to use microsofts version/program. Most XP drivers work for the most part for vista (for my bluetooth/infrared etc).
You need the The Ultimate version or at least the business version if you want to run any virtual machines. Driver support is per usual for a new OS. It has more support for my notebook than Linux or Freebsd/OpenBSD right now. Has some handy dandy little addons that are nice but can be emulated with third party utilities with XP. The DRM/Trusted computer add on stuff makes me leary of using it mainstay for awhile. The Sidebar is not worth it the third party programs are far superior. I still use Vista with Bblean (a version of blackbox for windows) Instead of the default explorer (less memory usage etc). On the whole it looks like microsoft took years to implement features already found (and far superior) in third party programs.
My Advice unless you get it cheap or ahem..free don't bother yet.
