Finally, Windows Vista is out the door and on the shelves. There's been loads of development, loads of hype and loads of worries about hackers being able to breach it. But, what can it do for SMEs?

Here's an overview of the features that are specifically helpful for small businesses.

You can:

use your Vista-enabled computer with a wireless network
easily network with others
find what your looking for on your computer using just a few keywords
schedule backup of files
edit photos
send and receive faxes
protect yourself from online threats with built-in security
encrypt files

NB: The different versions have a varying number of features.

PCMag and C-Net also have a couple of useful reviews of Windows Vista.
