Just a small reminder. In case you havent, you must uninstall any RC builds (any build less than 6.0.6001.18000) before they expire on June 30. After this date, the kernel will stop with an END_OF_NT_EVALUATION_PERIOD error message an hour after the machine has booted. If you do wait until after June 30, just reboot your PC and start the uninstall process.

...and hope your computer is fast enough to uninstall a service pack in under an hour. Probibly not an issue anymore, but I know years ago installing/uninstalling a service pack took a very long time.
Personally I think trying to upgrade Vista either from installing over an existing XP and SP0 installation takes too long compared to a fresh install.
This happens rarely. So, let's say if you don't uninstall.. Are you planning to restart your pc every 30 minutes?

no i would bought i mac which i did already.
It work just fine. I have installed the RTM version on several computers without an issue. I also have an updated image and it works just as well as the stand alone installer.
However, it is preferred to use an updated disc image and make a clean install.
XP should get this on June 30th, then folks will have to go with Vista.
