Comment:

I have Vista business and my notebook is a member of a domain. When I take the notebook offsite the logons take *forever* just like XP used to in the early days - presumably while Vista waits to hear back from the domain controller, which isn't there. Anyone have a workaround for this?

Try making sure your laptop's wireless is disabled before logging in when away from the domain. There's usually a manual switch or keyboard command that can disable it...
