Vista Released, Ultimate Extras Available

[Hosser]

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:

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.
