Vista finally working

After 7 months of full time use, I will say that my laptop is as good as it was with XP. I'm not sure what happened when, but I must have done some updates that made the sleeping/power management work. The machine is now living up to it's potential.

I still won't play games with Vista, though. The loss of frames per second is just too much, especially with a Dell Latitude D620 with the lousy Intel video card.
