The Official Windows Vista Magazine, April/May Edition

I can't believe I haven't mentioned this before: the second issue of Windows Vista: The Official Magazine (the link leads to the US edition; there is also a UK edition) from Future Publishing, Ltd hits retail stores this month, continuing to deliver informative articles on Windows Vista and what it can do.

Windows Vista Magazine

A few of the articles that caught my eye are:

  • "1-Hour Upgrade":  Detailing the step-by-step process of upgrading your PC to Windows Vista.  It even tackles how to go about working around problems you might encounter during the process.
  • "How to Connect Your Xbox 360 to Your PC":  Pretty much self explanatory :)
  • "Games for Windows Preview":  A look at Games for Windows and the upcoming Live Anywhere gaming platform, including Halo 2 for Windows Vista!
  • A closer look at using Zune with Windows Vista

These articles alone may make it worthwhile for you to pick it up, but there's more to the issue still -- like a guide on Certified for Windows Vista devices that enhance the Windows Vista experience.  But rather than spoil the surprise, I'll let you check out the latest issue to find out which devices they talk about :)

    Just like the OS this is the only place I could find to place this.

    I just received a new computer with Windows Vista, and have had nothing but trouble with this operation system. As a developer you should be embarrassed that this product was ALLOWED to enter the market place. Internet explorer, and media play has countless problems the best that anyone can say is that you have to get this patch or that patch or that service pack, every time I turn the computer on I find another problem. It shows that Microsoft and predominately Bill Gates has the green in their eyes rather then giving a good solid product. I guess making money is more important then customer satisfaction. This is appalling that after I purchase a product and in this case windows that I have to spend most of my time with tech support just so it runs right. I would expect this when windows first came out but not now after several generations of windows under your belt.

    This is appalling!!!!

    Hey Redbelly:  it is indeed possible to install both OSes on the same machine; take a look at this article for guidance:  http://windowshelp.microsoft.com/Windows/en-US/Help/8572be9b-8580-49f7-9719-b3a4c42749fe1033.mspx.
