VLC player
The VLC player comes in handy while streaming videos on lan and on network,it has the ability to play cd’s and dvd’s too.the main key feature is that it doesn need codecs like power dvd and the like.
VLC has many skins that can be added , these skin downloads are absolutely free.some third party skins are also available for VLC.one must mention the looks of the player,very compact oses a professional look.on full screen mode we can watch the video without any hindarances from the player as there are shortut keys for navigation or rather seeking the file and controlling the volume.VLC aslso supports us to take screen shots from the file we are playing(this is quite a handy tool)

Windows Vista Ultimate
Windows Vista Ultimate has much improved features of Windows XP; the probability of a system crashing while running on windows vista is very very low.the help feature which vista has is very informative and useful for novice users.
Vistas search is not upfront,it is kind of buried in the startmenu,that makes searching a little complicated.the search on windows is a bit partial(one has to understand that).the search lists microsofts components’ first ,then followed by others.The process of finding programs for vista is a complicated process,its more like dog-fight since there are many versions of vista available and also the need changes from time to time.
So inorder to fill the epilogue , we have to put things straight . the windows vista and windows Xp\sp2 are on par with each other.apart from a few changes in graphics and styles (and also the above discussed points).if one is happy with Windows Xp , they have no srong reason to move to Vista
