Vista Release Candidate 2 Released to Connect, TAP, and..CPP!

Released to CPP to a VERY limited amount of users so if you're planning on testing it using RC2 I'd suggest you hurry.

Do I need to burn this, or can I mount it with Alcohol?  (I ask because I want to install Vista on an UltraBay drive which swaps with my DVDROM drive..

You don't need to burn it at all if you install on either another HD or upgrade from XP.

I've been using it for about 3 days and I've found no reason to go back to XP.

WoW runs fine and all my apps (Except AIM 5.9) work fine. Gaim is good though.

Vista is a VERY solid OS and is nice and responsive.

I'll probably keep XP around for a bit, until I'm 100% sure everything works 100%.

If you want, I could test out software you think might have issues for you.

Eh.  I'm on Vista now.  My only problem is that I can't upgrade (which I tried), due to some compatability issues (despite the "Windows VistaTM Capable" sticker on the right side of my laptop).

I need to remove the clean install from the boot menu (I reformatted the drive).  How can I do this?
