yep thats what i was told 2, my work computer is crap so our tec people told me to install the 86 one.

think one of them has taken the other dvd for there own feedback, knowing them it will be on the net tomorrow anyway lol. MS has give us a few keys so as long as they dont get uploaded 2.

I don't think it matters too much with the Beta to be honest as it's a public release. Each key can be used on 10 different PCs to evaluate the product and the beta is on public download anyhow.

o i see, the pack letter stated that MS had closed the program for getting the dvd. we never asked for the pack but as part of the MS program we have they sent us them anyway. it had **** loads of other stuff in also we seem to get them every few weeks at the mo, things like office, CMS system, SQL systems etc.

MS state its closed 2 i think: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsvist...y/preview.mspx

Ahh must have reached the limit for previews.

well the keys given only worked once, on another pc we had to use another key, think its becuase we had to activate each install with the key.

the funny thing was after it had updates, what the hell updates can vista have yet! lol

i have a new MS office to have a look at also think its something like 2007 i could be wrong, again everyone was like a mad dog around the office for the this pack.

Its a Beta, it will be updated hourly i would think !

Indeed - internally at MS there is a new build being made available daily due to the amount of progress being made on the OS now.

i assumed they would wait for the feedback b4 they played again lol

Ian Cook

All the proper beta testers provide feedback constantly, which they then act upon, either immediately or it gets put on a to do list depending on its severity !
