I think you will see the Vista newsgroups go through many changes as Vista
evolves. Currently we are in limbo as there are no more beta versions and
the RTM has limited distribution. Over the next little while we will start
to see posts from new Vista VL users (and affected MVPs) as this will be the
first use of Vista for many of these people. Next when the OEM pc
manufacturers start selling pc's with Vista and the retail version hits the
market we will get another flood of new users (and probably some MVPs).
Initially we will see many of the same questions and arguments we saw with
the various beta releases. It will probably take at least a year after Vista
is in general release for things to settle down and the signal to noise
ratio in these groups settles down.

I can't wait for all the luddites to come out of the woodwork with a million
XP is better posts. Each phase will bring out more of these people as some
people resist change for any reason :-)
 
Hi Kerry!!

meaning-and I know ya do!!! lol)

Jeff:
I think the evolution will be great, I watched it with x64. The bottom
line is that it will be a learning period and hopefully the good answers
will continue. Have a great Thanksgiving.
 
You too!!!
just a note-("mvp" doesnt neccessarily mean "mvp" yet.- in regards to
Vista!!!)
lol
Happy Thansgiving!!
Go Lions!!!
well, I gotta wish-lol

There are, and will be, no "Vista MVPs". We are "Windows Shell/User MVPs".
Vista is included by default since it has both a shell and users. ;-)

P.S. - isn't the new name of our team the "Detroit Dyins"? :-(

Yup,
Disgusting how Joey was the MVP-lol
And I'm fully aware, Richard; what mvp designations are.lol
Again; like I said before; unless you have MSFT by your name-mvp is
meaningless in reference to Vista; cuz WE all started at ground zero on this
puppy.
So use the title in your posts if you like; but in reference to Vista; it
don't mean diddly; yet.
Happy Thanksgiving-btw
:-)

It's sad but true about ex-Lion players. But you have to remember
that they've only been rebuilding since 1957, before some of the current
players parents were born.

Sometimes lately it seems it should be lol to the 64th your MVPness. There
seem to be two teirs. The old tradition; staright high quality help and the
new tradition--the condescension of the self perceived "chosen few" with
terse one liners reminiscent of the SS prior to WWII.

I think you'll see a lot of valid signals.

I think this elite signal to noise moniker is over worked. There have
been more signals than you and others give credit to, but a lot of people
are jaded because they first read the same stuff, some of it a phrased in a
little bit more sophisticated way on the TBT groups, with some of it on
those groups not phrased in a more sophisticated way, and a lot of noise on
the TBT groups as well, suprise surprise, (the old adage that most people
weren't born congentially sophisticated but had to learn to deal with
glitches by experience so those who had it in July of 05 made the same
quacks and asked for the same help--plenty of them couldn't get Vista up
onto their screens as I look at their crys for help and this included MVPs
who couldn't as well by the way).

So let's not kid ourselves that everything that comes from more experienced
people is noise free, or that they are the chosen ones, lol or that they
didn't have many of the same problems, or that many of them didn't cry out
for freebe Vista on the Beta groups just as we see people now asking for
freebies and a rather intrepid backlash on the web to the expense and
licensing of Office 2007 and Vista I might ad having watched this for years.

They'll be echoing problems with the features that never were; and the
features that shipped broken, and the good idea crashed into the ground in
execution UAC.

People also will discover that whatever junk is shipped by the OEMs because
they don't have the guts and foresight to say "No--I refuse to let MSFT
screw me for six more years. I demand a DVD with Vista on it not that
ridiculous recovery garbage" they will have no means to reach startup
repair, and for the number that do--the TBTs like you who burned an RTM iso
already, and various and sundry groups who got free Vista by one means or
another MVPs, TAP, and programs with assorted less known acronyms and
abbreviations, they'll find that unlike a repair install in Win XP, Win RE
doesn't work much of the time.

That'd be this from PM Desmond Lee's team:

resist change

It has not passed through your mind that by continuing your old path, of
following
each new version of windows blindly that YOU are resisting change?
Yes you are following the path of least resistance by doing what you always
have done.

For you going to vista is far less resistance than choosing an alternative
solution, or even
thinking a little about the possibility that vista stinks.
You are doing what you are preprogrammed to do.

Prove to me that you are versatile and you welcome change, and buy a Mac for
example,
install linux, better yet, leave your desk .. and enroll in some other
activity that is non computer related.

Jeff is an MVP?
 
Nina,
Me?
lol
nah- Only one person; is in my opinion;a candidate for MVP-(Jimmy B). i know
they'll all babble that there is no "Vista MVP" and that it's by
category-ie.-shell;files;security etc.
Unless someone posts with an MSFT next to their name; there isn't a Vista
"mvp", those MVP tags mean diddly squat in reference to Vista.
We all pretty much started at ground zero with Vista; so anyone can claim
knowledge profeciency of it.
So anyone postin in here using that designation; ain't representing
correctly.
But if I could vote- Jimmy B for MVP!!!!!
lol
