Hi Gustav,
How do I remove the DRM stuff? I just got a hot damn laptop with Vista
Ultimate. Also, how can I make the thing stop asking me for security
confirmation for just about any activity?

Thanks.

Hi John et al

Also, I must admit that the graphic design of the Vista GUI is so much
better than the ugly Fisher-Price shell of XP. Since MacOS X, Windows has
looked like a student's work in comparison. Now that has changed with
Avalon, Windows Presentation Foundation, which is truly innovative, and the
default layout meets the highest graphic standards; at last a pro machine
will look pro too in use.

This is not to defend all the compatibility issues and the nasty DRM stuff
(which should be removed right away).

Vista is a definite step forward.  I too abhor the DRM crap they are forcing
on us, but other than that I think it is a significant step forward in most
other respects.  And yep, it will force us onto more powerful platforms.  

That is just the price we pay to play the game.
