Taking UMPC to the mainstream

Steve has done a great job on demonstrating the Via based Medion UMPC with Vista and from using it as your main desktop. Take a look at the video below for details.

One thing to note is that I’ve optimised Vista on this UMPC. If you’re using Windows Vista on any UMPC I recommend the following optimisations: Turn off Indexing. Turn off Windows Defender checks. Turn off the anti-phishing filter in Internet explorer. Reduce screen candy (System->Advanced->Performance Settings) and try out the registry mod that the members of Origamiproject have been testing out. I’ve found it to be good at reducing disk activity on this UMPC.
