/me is eager to hear peoples' experiences

Well, upon first boot I got a BSoD.(Typical...) It DOES boot faster then Windows XP and the old Longhorn beta.(My MSDN expired around the end of Longhorn).
I quite like the Aero theme, but they could give us a better selection of themes. The widgets bar could use some major imporvement. (And the overall functionalty of the widget's options and movement)
Settings are once again moved around so you have to go searching for them when you first get Vista.
Has a lot of problems running certin apps designed for XP. (Even in 'Run in capability for XP SP2')
Does not auto-connect to my wireless network. (XP did this fine.)
Has problems displaying icons for apps that were designed for XP.
The installation was nice and easy. (Type in your CD-key and go!)
Thats about it for now...
Here are some of my screenshots:
