My Screenshots: Special issues on Vista page.
Note: Some browsers scale the images by default. Prefer to see them in their actual size. 



Starting the customization Starting to customize. Expanding Control Panel, Documents and Printers is a very practical solution. Expanding Network Connections is also practical. Adjusting Services Configuring the services. Here I add the simple TCP-IP services and seriously consider to add the NFS service, for a complete cooperation with Linux NFS servers and clients. Always dig inside the system to adjust and tweak options.
Extending the volume of a partition.
After deleting a partition, I choose to extend the ntfs primary one up to the maximum free space. This task needs administrator privileges and is done realtime without rebooting.
Mounting a partition as a directory
Remembering Unix habits. After the partition setup (all without rebooting), I happily find that a volume can be mounted as a directory instead of a drive letter only. I mount the ntfs partition as Home and will soon place folders and permissions.
Final filesystem setup with an ext2 layer
Final partition setup. C is primary, D is secondary, a Linux partition mounted with the IFS Drives filesystem layer and swap moved to the last partition.
Setting permissions
Having converted a partition from fat32 to ntfs without losing data, I decide to set up custom permissions and ownership to master folders. The defaults on a new drive are focused on usability and they might not be very strict, but they can be tweaked a lot.
ScummVM In Linux Screenshots I showed ScummVM running Full Throttle. Here, ScummVM running in Vista plays Monkey Island 3. ScummVm is portable. So, having resource files in a common partition helps running the same games in different OSes. Setting permissions This is a Windows 7 issue! Using mouse gestures, tiling 2 Explorers to simulate
an orthodox file manager only takes 2 seconds! Orthodox file managers follow the Norton Commander two - pane style. the design  is very practical for file
copying - moving - decompressing actions.
XPS Viewer browsing-reading XPS Documents
XPS Document viewed with Microsoft XPS Viewer. XML Paper Specification is an now open standard developed by Microsoft. The procedure for the user is like printing to a file instead of the printer. Printing example here. Portable Open Source projects like Ocular (KDE project) and Evince can view XPS Documents.
