Thumbs up

Arrived yesterday, works fine.

Downside is that I don't get to talk to that nice Irish girl on the 'phone anymore for activation

Cheers

Ian

Downloaded RC2 from MSDN on Friday.

Putting it on a spare PC tomorrow to see what's changed this time...

I have the manufacturers edition and the nice 'constant nagware' edition that MS Send out to trialists. I take it you want the manufacturesrs edition. Am in the process of moving house at the moment (stuff is in storage) but I can burn you a copy as soon as I have got all this mortgage cr@p sorted and have moved in.

I agree it may be little more than a WIN2K service pack and a facelift after the decorators have been in, but it's the stability issue that i am interested in. I have read on some other Bulliten Boards that it is very stable, I am looking at it from point of view of music production, and i understand that it is stable in this respect.

The question you *should* be asking - would anyone really want it

its bonkers - the new interface uses icons as large as houses and seems to have been designed by a 3yr old with assorted colour crayons.

Watch as everyone reaches for the "classic" view switches !

I think i'll stick with 2000 thanks.

Some would say XP is a 2000 service pack anyway.

I've been told the release will have a better collection of themes so the Crayola Theme that comes as standard with XP can be changed to something other than Classic. We will see.

Cheers

Ian
