I have been using Vista 64 since the beta versions.  Until today I did not know of a cool feature for those that drop out to a command windows (MS DOS Box).  Back in Windows XP we had a tool that added the "Open Command Window Here" on the context menu when you right clicked on a folder.   Well..  In Vista that is now built in but hidden!

All you have to do is hold down the SHIFT button when you right click on a folder and it adds two new options to the context menu, "Open Command Window Here" and "Copy as Path".

How cool is that!
