Run As Administrator in Vista

I've found a happy place in Vista, and that's by running stuff as an Administrator. I originally thought I was in trouble and would have to roll back to XP, but I'm feeling better about it tonight. I've realized that XP drivers get installed in places that only administrators have rights to, and even though applications may seem to work fine I still need to run them as admin in order for the drivers to work correctly. I'm sure the security stuff in Vista will pay off, but for now I wish it'd quit complaining.

Have a good weekend,

Chris
