I just finished upgrading from Windows Vista Business to Windows Vista Ultimate on my tablet. I purchased the very affordable, $8 copy from the IT store today. It is specifically for Speed School students and is at a reduced price because of our technology fee.
The install took about 2 hours. It was an upgrade, I'm certain a fresh install would not have taken as long to install the OS but in the long run, I didn't want to reinstall all of my applications again. After the upgrade I was getting several very scary error messages and driver problems. Slowly things started to repair themselves and after installing all of the windows updates, things seem to be in good shape.
I haven't had time yet to play with the exclusive Ultimate features, but I'll get around to it. I'm most excited about the media features that are typically in Home Premium but missing from Business. Specifically, the media center for Vista may prove to be quite useful.
Lately a large amount of my friends have been installing Vista. I'm seeing a big move towards the new OS. It might be because of the fact it is almost free, but none the less, it is still worth using. Although it has some problems, as a whole, it is as reliable and useful as Windows XP when it was first released.
