*Gulp* Well...I'm choosing the red pill

Yesterday my brother brought home an official Microsoft DVD with windows Vista Beta 2 on it. I installed it (on a new partition of course) right before I went to bed, and when I woke up in the morning, it worked perfectly. I think I am going to overwrite my WindowsXP installation with Vista, these may be my last words, but here goes nothin!

    Look, all in all, Vista works great. But it has some /serious/ power management issues (failure to boot, random restarts, etc.). It's better when you set the power management settings for performance, not low energy use, but at times, it can still be quite unusable.

    In fact, I just heard a groan from my dad in the other room, followed by a POST beep... another restart {frown}
