    Default Vista Released, Ultimate Extras Available

    Windows Vista was just released and all this beautiful stuff just started working, such as Ultimate Extras, which are only available to owners of Windows Vista Ultimate. Thankfully I got a free copy of Vista Ultimate for being a long-term member of the beta-testing pool. =D

    Here are some screenshots for you fellas:

    Hold 'Em poker is great, now I can play it when I have no friends around. And for free, too! =D

    That poker game looks really sweet dude.

    I'm stuck on business at the moment, which seriously lacks in games.

    I've had to make do with the Video Poker/Sudoko/Pong gadget

    At the moment, only a preperation tool for the BitLocker drive encryption. DreamScene has been promised (allows you to have motion video as a wallpaper) and Microsoft GroupShot has also been announced, though you can download this for Windows XP from Microsoft.

    Oh, and someone mentioned the 3D windows? By that I guess you mean Flip 3D. I posted a screenshot of this ages ago, but here you are again:



    After checking for more updates today, none were forthcoming. I hope they hurry up with DreamScene, I've tried the beta but I really want the final version.

    I love that 3D flip thing. I just keep opening as many Windows as i can just so i can flip them

    You maybe able to help me Hosser? Have you heard of this problem?

    When i load up IE7 in Vista and open a new tab, type in the URL i want to visit and hit enter it just highlights the URL i typed in.

    The only way of getting passed it, is by hitting the Home button, then typing the URL in again. :?

    Group Shot is a photo manipulation application, and a powerful one at that. You can download it for Windows XP/Vista here:

    http://research.microsoft.com/projects/GroupShot/

    Try it out, it's fantastic.

    As for your issue Belso, I've never encountered it =O

    Are you running x64? Because I have yet to try the 64-bit version. Maybe one of the updates will fix it... I have no idea what would cause that, sorry.
