Other that than, what are the major differences? Does it seem to be as big a resoure hog as Vista?

The task bar is a bit larger and more user friendly, much faster is the only way I can describe it. Others describe it as stable. You can download it from a link in Wikipedia... My brother is a computer/tech type person in the Navy. He is home on leave and he decided it was time to clean up the family computers.

It expires in June of 2010. I installed it on a second OS partition on my hard drive, so I can still boot to Windows XP if I want or need to.

I've been running it on a new build for a month or so - great so far. Fast, completely stable, some pretty slick cosmetic/interface upgrades over XP. I like it.

I'll figure out what to do about the expiration sometime in the next 10 months.

I have two minor complaints:
-the start menu is a little goofy - I'd like to get a classic, win2k style menu back
-I want my "directory up" button back in win explorer
