- the UI obviously
- the search (however still not as fast as Google Desktop Search)
- the audio: ability to set per-application volume, on/off status for each audio device, easy to switch between various audio drivers
- the snipping tool
- the backup tool. Definitely easier to use than Windows XP's. If the PC is off when a backup is scheduled, the backup takes place as soon as the PC is switched back on.
- the performance monitor and the reliability chart: the chart goes down as the frequency of crashes increases. See my chart below for the last month.
- Check for solutions window: when you download updates, Vista remembers the previous crashes and checks for solutions for each of them.
- Built-in disk partioning.
- Previous versions of a file are automatically saved (where? when? I don't know, but it's a very usefull feature, more clever than a rubbish bin).
- Offline files. Ability to encrypt offline files.
What I don't like:
- the backup: it does not offer you to back-up files from a specific folder. It only allows file types.
