Default Vista 5231 Preview

We at hardwaregeeks had a chance to play around with the upcoming Vista 5231 build and write up a preview for everyone. Here's some teaser screens of the big new features in the build

**UPDATE** I was just sent a link apparently theirs a pirated version of 5231 going around saying it was packaged by ME, and was released by my other website www.uxevolutions.com. We at hardwaregeeks, and uxevolutions HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS leak.

I know exactly what you mean. Can't wait for that!

WMP11 looks cool, but strangely, the window titlebars have no title - in this, and 5219. Hopefully Microsoft will put them back, and not leave them like this!
