Since my Tablet PC has integrated Intel graphics, I'm SOL when it comes to Aero glass. At least, I thought so. On a Tablet PC enthusiasts site its been reported that Aero Glass now works on an under-speced Toshiba M200 by default. The site says the graphic card now shares system memory... Are changes being made to Aero Glass to support more hardware? I’ve signed up for the Install Fair in Mountain View, so I’ve yet to install Vista on my Tablet PC.

This was the first ISO that was cranky if not burned at a slow speed (finally 2.4 got it right). Weird though that M/S giveth and also taketh away. For example, now my Dell 19" ultarsharp can install a driver, but Trillian (my IM program) now no longer works correctly, and incites Vista to change video modes (aero to basic) due to some incompatibility and screws custom personalization all to hell. Also, still not present is a solution for my Canon scanner (4200F) or my Canon Digital camera (S40). Subtle changes in Outlook. Navigation pane for example has been changed. Also, lost all my rules (over 100) when installing and applying the TR. Fortunately, backed up nicely prior to the install. Keep plugging I guess.
