HCL?

Is there a Hardware Compatibility List somewhere for the soon to be released
CPP beta?
How would I know if my hardware is supported *before* I install vista beta?
Do I just contact each vendor site and hope there is info there and if not
do I just ask around for instance here?
I'm thinking about installing the beta to a test machine but it would be
nice to know if there are drivers for my hardware before I go to the trouble
to install and then have to uninstall if not.
TIA
