Tom's Hardware Looks at Microsoft Vista Beta

RockClimbingFool writes "Tom's Hardware has a pretty good overview of what the current beta version of Microsoft Windows Vista has to offer. The article is written from an average user's perspective, specifically highlighting exactly which differences the average computer user can expect to see from Windows XP to Windows Vista. It covers everything from IE7, to the new Windows Aero interface, to brand new games." But if you'd like your eye candy open source and downloadable now, check out Lunapark6's review of the current version of Ubuntu Dapper, with "emphasis placed on helping someone set up the system for everyday desktop usage."

Slow month.

I know that it's been a pretty slow month as far as news goes, but please. This is the 500th "Vista Beta preview/review/OMG PONIES!" article that has been on /. this week and the 2nd Tom's Hardware ad I've had to NOT read. This is crap. The fact that a Ubuntu endorsement came with the summary is just silly as well.

Try again when Vista is about to hit the new Dell machines and then we will see what it can do. Enough of the "Vista is going to be the Suxor!" and "Yet ANOTHER look at M$ Vista Beta 5,000,000XP++"!

Yeah, but

Can it run Linux?
