Note: Remember that the drivers (at least for nVidia) are still in alpha stage. So, don't be surprised if using the drivers will cause problems later on. In fact, after running Aero Glass for a while, I was not able to log into my account after a reboot. The ultimate culprit turned out to be the nVidia driver. To restore the original driver, use Safe Boot (press and hold the F8 key during reboot) and then restore the video driver to the original one.

How exacyly is the NVidia driver a problem to well log on an account?
I think this is somewhat of a newbie review (Newbie to Windows I mean).
What I don't understand, is why you had to reboot in the first place to change a graphic driver, when one of the functionality of Vista is that you can change a grpahic driver without reboot ...
