Giving Windows Vista a Second Look

I am going to be giving Windows Vista a second look. The last time I tried Vista was back in May (build 5381), just prior to the public beta release.

I have access to Vista build 5472 which I will install on Dell desktop. Let's see how far the OS has come in the past 3 month. Hopefully, this time around, I will not have to dig around the web for basic drivers for the build in hardware in my Dell (sound card, WiFi card, Network, etc...)

My main curiosity is to check out Vista's speech recognition interface.
