Vista Media Center

[Biohead]

Latest VMC from build 5308 - looks very nice ATM!

Looks nice - but takes up 100,000K of memory (YES, Thats right, 100,000K!).

well , many people may certainly feel differently , but considering that they are projecting Vista as a Powerfull Machines Only OS , and also the fact that a thing or serive like media center would be at any time the single Main service , 100,000k is not completely magnimous.

I mean we have firefox running at 60,000k most of the times , so it is pretty acceptable.

The memory size is not sure.

First they look what Windows Vista get

Second they debug it

third they optimize it

So it is possible that the size of 100.000K wil be finaly only 45.000 or less

hopefully they've added 'play all' function in subfolders now, can't believe its not a part of it already in mce2005!

and hope there's no 'delete' option after a video finishes, thats just stupid imo, and have to do a work around by setting folders to read only.

I doubt the final bit of Vista is going to take as much resources as we are worrying. And lets not forget that this is msfn we are talking about prob the most resourceful forum on the WEB when it comes to stripping out and maximizing what you can get from your OS and I am sure Vista will be no exception.
