I went to the Vista After Hours evening at TVP this evening. All in all a very interesting and enjoyable evening which highlighted some of the features in Vista and how it integrates with the new Home Server product and things like the XBOX 360.
I particularly liked the demo of the DVD creation software and the other 'out of the box' features. It was a Technet event so get yourself on the mailing list for future similar events.
One thing which did come up was that MS should consider doing a similar event for business users to highlight the key reasons to move to Vista. Interoperability with new features in Longhorn Server would also be good to see.
