Hello everyone from the La Crosse PC Users Group, thank you for having me, I had a great time showing you Vista!
Here is the information that I promised:
- For starters, here is the break down of the different versions of vista (click here)
- Second, the TV tuner that I used in my brief demo of Media Center for Vista is a WinTV PVR 2 USB which is made by a company called Hauppage. NewEgg currently has it for $124.99 (click here to go to newegg’s listing)
- Third, The Build that I had on the Dell Inspiron 1520 that I did the demo with is here
- Fourth, I will see what I can do with the video, we ran a little long so a large part of the presentation did not make it on the tape. Check back in a week and hopefully I will have posted something by then.
Also from my presentation, I would like to remind you that for home use, The version to go with is Vista Home Premium, unless you want all the neat features of Vista Ultimate then spring for tha, but for general computing Vista Home Premium will be perfect.
For more Vista and microsoft information there is a great podcast Windows Weekly which has a ton of great information about what is going on at Microsoft. This podcast is part of the TWIT (This Week in Tech) podcast network run by Leo Laporte (former The Screen Savers host from TechTV)
Please let me know if you have any questions about what you learned at the demo and I would be happy to answer them. E-Mail
