OT] Windows Vista Tips & Tricks

Para que nadie se lleve a engaño y además esten preparados para los posibles
errores / tweaks mal informados que sucedan en el futuro, conviene recordar
que:

a) Windows Vista beta1 no se parece ni de casualidad a lo que será la
version final. Unicamente se 'parece' a efectos de escritorio e
infraestructura de nucleo.

b) No es la version de desarrollo, si no una version 'preparada' para que
los betatester puedan dar sus primeras impresiones. No es en absoluto estable
ni tiene las caracteristicas de la version final.

c) Unicamente a efectos de nucleo tiene ya algunas partes definitivas para
que los desarrolladores de drivers / integradores vayan adelantando trabajo.

d) se distribuye igualmente en el MSDN para que los que somos suscriptores
podamos ir intuyendo hacia donde evoluciona el mercado.

Por tanto cualquier tweak, conclusion, etc, debe restringirse a esta beta 1,
que recalco, que no es la version actual de desarrollo de Microsoft. Más
informacion en las paginas oficiales de Windows Vista de Microsoft.

El problema de estas paginas y otras que surgirán es que estos 'tweaks'
crean historia y por la tecnica ce cortar y pegar otras paginas en el futuro
incorpòrarán cosas que son mentira. Por ello, hay que tener muchisimo cuidado
con ello.

Salu2,

Welcome & Overview

Well it has been a long time coming, Windows Vista Beta 1 is here! It all started on November 19, 2002 with the leak of the first Longhorn build we would ever see, 3683. This build was simplistic and showed off some of the new features that we would be seeing in what was then called Windows Codename "Longhorn". Longhorn progressed into the 4000 series which looked pretty promising when we had a look at build 4008, but we were proven wrong when 4015 came out of the Redmond build labs. 4015 was officially dubbed "the build from hell" by myself and Nighthawk when we installed this and saw the massive memory leak that existed in explorer.exe. This trend continued into 4029 and later into the PDC build which bore the number 4051. Microsoft promised great things for PDC 03, but we were all seriously let down by a horrible build that leaked ram worse than 4015, as if that was possible. The scene moved on to build 4053 which was slightly better but still horrible. WinHEC 2004 bought the

promise of a new Longhorn developer preview that was supposed to be SO much better than the previous preview. Build 4074 looked alright in demos but was also extremely disappointing. In August 2004 news surfaced that Microsoft was removing WinFS from the Longhorn, and on September 9th 2004 they restarted the Longhorn project based off the Windows Server 2003 SP1 kernel bearing the build number 5000. Fast forward to April of this year, the WinHEC 2005 conference. Microsoft handed developers a new Longhorn preview bearing the number 5048. One would think that after a year of no Longhorn that this build would be impressive. It was anything but impressive. The build was so severely broken in areas (sound anyone?) that it was not usable in any way shape or form. At this point we all began to think that Longhorn was a speeding train headed straight for a concrete wall. Fast forward once again to last week when Beta Testers and MSDN subscribers recieved the first Beta of Longhorn, now
dubbed "Windows Vista" and carrying the build number 5112 . Beta 1 is leaps and bounds ahead of anything Microsoft has put in our hands before. This build is pretty stable right out the box which is a definite bonus. It does need some little tweaks and I also have some tips I wanted to share, so lets get going!
