Printers and Faxes: From the 6th page of Technical Improvements, we saw that Vista now can create XPS documents. As a result, a Digital Document Writer has been added in the printers and faxes section.
Help and Support: A new help and support applet has been added in Windows Vista. Users now can find quicker solutions to their problems by searching the internet for a solution. All the problems that have been found are stored in the "Solutions to Problems" section and the user can check again later for solutions or try to solve a problem that he has. In beta 1, it doesn't contain a lot of categories yet, but the final version should be more complete.

Adding Network Place Wizard: A new wizard for adding a network drive is included. It has more options than the previous wizard and it is now easier to add a network place, including wireless. Also, Windows Vista includes technology designed for giving presentations over a wireless network using any standard network projector.
