Business availability for Windows Vista in November 2006, consumer availability in January 2007.

PATo355 what're you running it on? I'm having 2nd thoughts whether to install the ISO I have now or just wait for the final release next year.

I would assume they would do it the other way around so that the consumers will sort out some of the bugs for Microsoft and the biz version will be more stable.

Install it on another hard drive , wont delete your windows , its really ram consuming , i have 1024 and it uses 700mb just installed !!!
But works very fast , windows animations are amazing !!! , i still run xp , takes time to get used to vista .

That was what I was going to do until I started reading all the bitching about RC. It's "better than expected" but it's "not yet ready".
Your enthusiasm makes me want to make the attempt.
With 700MB used how much more does it use running with other apps?

What setup are you using?
Maybe Pato can share his so we can compare as well.
