"I think it's excellent"
Pros: Great graphics, easy install, runs fast w/ 64 bit cpu
Cons: takes some work to make older 32 bit apps to work
Summary: I've been using 5744 for several days now, the media center features are great, as are most other parts of the OS - The article mentioned that the Program Compatibility Wizard was not present, NOT TRUE! I have used it several times - not always with good luck, had some trouble with Premiere Elements - but otherwise okay - Over all, I like this better than the previous build, I would have waited to buy Vista based 5564, based on this one I'll get it right away. The most important thing to me is that it looks so much better than XP - And the Media Center software is significantly more refined than version 2005 - a much more pleasurable experience! Good job Microsoft.
