BE FOREWARNED IT IS A BETA!!!! So don't judge Windows Vista on it alone, whether for stability or otherwise, it's not intended for review purposes.

I was quite impressed with the beta, I installed it about a month to two months ago. There are some major glitches in the actual install proccess, sometimes you can format raw drives, but sometimes it won't even read the drives as being there. It was actually surprisingly stable, all I had to do is run windows update, and download a single driver, for my soundcard. Other than that, it automatically detected everything else.

I will however warn anyone else installing it, if you have an nVidia video card, don't install the nVidia drivers, they completely messed my machine up.

But otherwise, it's an extremely stable Beta, Beta 2 is much better than the original beta, I'm looking forward to it.
