    So, I got my dv2000t yesterday and I noticed that it didn't come with a manual on how to use Vista. It seems pretty self-explanatory, but there are several issues I have questions about:

    1. Grouping and stacking: Can't see how this will benefit me right now. Anyone else put this to good use yet?

    2. Window Switcher: Switching to desktop makes Sidebar disappear and only reappears when other windows are restored and manually minimized. How do I stop this?

    3. Able to sort by attributes that can't be set. Such as sorting music albums by "Date Released". I have looked all over and cannot find where to add this information to album folders. I know you can change ID3 tag information in Winamp, but can I do this with WMP?

    4. When I try to manually enter a wireless connection, an "Unknown name" comes up in the list of available networks. Assuming this is the wireless router I'm searching for, I double click it and I'm asked to enter the SSID and key once again. This creates a 2nd profile (so, for example, you'll have one named "home" and then "home2"). Anyone else?


    thanks :)
