Yes, though it looks much like Welcome Screen as opposed to "classic logon"
window in previous versions of Windows. Also, "Domain" field is gone.

You turn CTRL+ALT+DEL basically the same way you would do that in XP. If you
need more details search this newsgroup as this question was already
discussed several times here.

If you are talking about thw W2K or XP Classic logon style, then I don't
think so. You can configure the machine to require CTL-ALT-DEL, and that is
the default if the machine is joined to a domain, but even then after
pressing CTL-ALT-DEL you get a more welcome screen looking logon.

With the 3-fingered salute you get the following options:

Switch user
task manager
lock computer
log off
change password

There are also the usual shutdown buttons and also a disability button for
changing fonts, text voice, etc.

In addition to the other posts you can set it so the user has to enter a
username and password at the Welcome Screen.

Control Panel | System and Maintenance | Administrative Tools | Local
Security Policy | Local Polices | Security Options | Interactive Logon: Do
not display last user name. Set it to enabled.

Press Ctrl+alt+delete twice and it should kick you over.

Why are you posting this to me? I didn't ask the question. Kick you over
to what? The classic login screen is not available in Vista.
