I am now more portable then I was

Hooo Woo, I am finally more portable then I was before. Earlier last month, I got HP IPAQ RW6828 phone and while I am still not finished playing with it, before two days I got ASUS F3JV Laptop. It's one top gaming system. I am not into gaming, but this will make sure that I will be able to do some powerful processing work on it.

Below are specs of the system: -

So what does a guy like me do on his brand new laptop? I got rid of Windows Professional from it and installed Windows Vista and start installing other software on it. I am having hard time installing some software on it!!! I installed Office 2007 on it.

So what do other people running Windows Vista run as Anti-virus software and as firewall software? I tried installing Zone Alarm but of course it did not install properly. As for anti-virus for now, I have installed AVG from Grisoft.

More on my experiences later on, but let me know some of the cool software that I should try on Windows Vista and any other tips that you might have.
