I remember the Windows Vista launch day in New York City so well. I was covering the event for CNET and remember thinking how exciting it was to finally have a successor to Windows XP. When the glitz of glamour of the event, with its loud rock music celebration and tasty hors d’œuvres, died down, it was clear this was not the version of the operating system that would redeem past users and win new ones.

Three years later, Microsoft is putting Vista in the rear-view mirror and setting its sights on an operating system that’s actually worth an upgrade. In some brief testing, I found the OS to be simple to (clean) install, super fast on start up and shut down, less demanding of my attention (pop-up bubbles, I’m talking about you) and overall more solid feeling. There are many enhancements, but in this episode of The 5 we’re taking a look at a few useful features I think you’ll enjoy. Distributed by Tubemogul.
