A flipping picture


Impressed? Windows Vista's 3-D Flip. I find it useful although severely limited by my poor graphics card. It likes to have 128mb of ram; mine has 64mb. Another thing I like is that the desktop is one of the "programs" meaning that you can alt-tab to the desktop. As opposed to having to find the "Show Desktop" button which was never in a convenient place.

3-D Flip is accessed by + key sequence. You can then or + through the pages as the cycle like a Rolodex or a slide tray. Also, you can click on the image of the window you want to go to and it snaps to the foreground. If you have video playing it will keep playing in 3-D form. That is really cool!

All-in-all some very snazzy eye candy in the latest offering's from Redmond!
