hi,
it has just come to my attention that students doing computing and other IT related subjects can get lots of free downloads off M$ while they are a student at the university . This includes free version of visual basic, XP, etc and vista final when it comes out. One of the available downloads is the vista beta. so i just wanted to know if there are any downsides of having it? are drivers hard to come by? lots of bugs? etc and is it worth the upgrade considering it's free? or will it cause more problems than it's worth?
also does the beta have all the features of the final?
