Experience Windows Vista

We live in an age where nearly everything is digital—the documents you create, the photos you take, and the music and videos that you enjoy on your PC. Even your daily correspondence with others through e-mail, faxes, and voice mail is digital. Your life is connected to the digital files stored on your PC.

Windows Vista introduces breakthrough computing experiences that are both visually exciting and intuitively designed, and will positively change the ways in which you use your PC. With the new desktop experience, you can more efficiently organize and find your information. You can "see" your files and applications in a way that makes sense to you so you can confidently focus on what you want to accomplish.

All of the elements of Windows Vista work together to create a new breakthrough computing experience. Take a look for yourself.

  • Windows Aero

    Windows Vista introduces the breakthrough Windows Aero user interface. Taking full advantage of the hardware on your PC, Aero gives you the best performance, and the most efficient, finely-tuned, and elegant Windows Vista experience.

  • Intuitive design for a streamlined experience

    Windows Vista will save you time, with simplified navigation that makes it dramatically easier to see the contents of your files.

  • Improved productivity

    Windows Vista works the way you want it to work, making it a snap to instantly find any file, application, or e-mail on your PC. But Windows Vista goes further than simple desktop search—it also gives you personalized ways to view and organize your files. With Windows Vista, the operating system adapts to you, rather than the other way around.
