dont u think the new Vista shut down button has gone over-complicated?
  cant they just make it ala XP style  QUOTE ...you are going to think of a long list of intelligent, defensible reasons why each of these options is absolutely, positively essential. Don't bother. I know. Each additional choice makes complete sense until you find yourself explaining to your uncle that he has to choose between 15 different ways to turn off a laptop.... http://www.joelonsoftware.com/items/2006/11/21.html personally, I think that Switch User and Lock is overlapping each other, and they can be combined become one, which is the current Switch User...it sure will confusing newbies of windows. And between Sleep and hibernate, most people would be easily confused too...why they renamed from standby to sleep? Suspense could be better word. and that menu make the power-off button and log-off button besides utterly useless  M$ just put them as garnishment ?This post has been edited by dattebayo: Nov 29 2006, 02:23 AM |

Actually, instead of shutting down, Vista will now hibernate so that you can get faster boot time when restarting the PC. I myself feels that it's a good thing as the PC is not using that much power during that time. Also, if I want to shut down, I just use the power switch on the PC itself

I dunno, starting from XP, I had developed a style to tidy up my start menu according to genre, but I have seen some of my fren's start menu that span the whole monitor. that's what Microsoft are targetting really, the ppl that don't like to tidy up the menu.

vLite - vista version of nLite
http://www.vlite.net/index.html QUOTE Windows Vista from Microsoft takes a lot of resources, we all know that. So here is the tool for easy removal of unwanted components and bootable ISO creation in order to make Vista run faster and to your liking. This tool doesn't use any kind of hacking, all files and registry entries are in their original form and protected as they would be if you install the full version only without the components you select for the removal. It configures the installation directly, before the installation, meaning you'll have to remake the ISO and reinstall it. This method is much cleaner, not to mention easier and more logical than doing it after installation on every reinstall. |
