I don't find it funny that they are already leaked over the internet, but that people actually use them seriously.

The released version of an MS product shouldn't be used until there is a service pak. So don't complain about betaware.

We were quite surprised by the amount of disk space the installer required. It needs a minimum of 8GB+ of free disk space, which goes on to show Microsoft's capitalization of cheap storage. Personally, we think that 8GB for a mere OS is a bit too much to ask, but considering Vista is still in Beta, maybe the required disk space will trickle down in the final version. It might even go up, so if you have a 40GB hard disk, be prepared to spare 20 percent of it just for the OS.

OMG! 8 Gigs?! <passes out>
