I hope it turns out to be a pleasurable experience.

Just make sure you have working Vaio restore disks before you start.

Hi John,

In my opinion it is still too early to move to Vista. Expected date on the market is early 2007 so it means Microsoft is still in beta phase. RC phase is expected Mid to End of August. That version is probably a better version to start testing but don't count on a too stable version of Vista.

From VAIO side we will be putting more info on Vista online around Mid/August. As you have bought a Vista Capable machine, you will be eligible to download all necessary modules (drivers, bios, utilties, etc...) to have your VAIO working as it does today with XP (or hopefully better 😉 through our support website.

Sounds like Sony could me moving in the right direction.

Please don't forget Desktop LCD monitor inf files Vista doesn't like the current ones.

I got my Vista Beta disks through from Microsoft with the last Partners update I also would not be tempted to install till it has started to be shipped with PCs (I like to play it safe).
