WinFX begins

Have decided that I need to keep up with what Microsoft is doing in the arena that I work in, therefore have been researching a bit into WINFX recently.

I have a company laptop (IBM Thinkpad T40 512MB) and my own personal computer (1.4GHz 512MB). I cannot really install too much software on the company laptop incase it has to go back to HQ for work.

Therefore I have bought myself a new laptop purely for WINFX and other research. I did not want to spend too much on this, so set myself a budget of £500. What I ended up with is an ACER Aspire 3613 from Ebuyer

I have now installed the the Jan CTP for WINFX including all of the additional components that plug into Visual Studio 2005.
