Readyboost works on fast memory card & thumbdrive only.
Tested almost 20 thumbdrive and 50 memory cards, only half of them (mostly branded) works.
*
well.. readyboost can boost your vista to be smoother and faster when open a program

but how smooth and how fast it can boost?
open wlm8.1 about 1sec is consider fast?

my pc has 2gb ddr400 ram and tried the readyboost, i could not feel any obvious increase in performance
i also heard that 2gb and above.. will not show the power of readyboost as 2gb is enough for vista to run smoothly ..

i think the readyboost is to help those system with 1gb and below to run smoother in vista??

Windows Firewall in Vista failed me. I tried to block all outbound connections and add the programs one by one into the exception list. Guess what? My Internet died. Couldn't sign in to Windows Live Messenger, surf web pages using Firefox.  sweat.gif

Oh yeah, it didn't even ask me whether I should allow or block a particular program. That was why I had to add them one by one into the exception list. Even the Windows Firewall in Windows XP SP2 also gives notification when a program is launched. Since it's a full-fledged firewall, I think Microsoft is ought to make it more user friendly.

ya, IE7 is not stable!
i go to download certain softwares from microsoft website.. also get crashed!
