Windows Vista Beta 1 is already superior to Linux.
The tin ear has been in place in building 26 and others @ Redmond since the start and was very prevelant throughout the Beta in Vista. It thrives now. ..... Hi All, I was wondering if this bug has been fixed in XP, to eliminate it's wiping out Vista's restore points when the 2 OS's are set up as dualboot?

Your opinions please on proposed system
the office ribbins certanly end the pain of trying to find stuff. granted the first time i tried to 'paste special' i was searching swearing and generally Must take back what I said last time. This beta 2 looks allot better than the first beta I looked at. One thing. My inbox says that there is 1 new message

My opinion
Using the Wii as an example, it could run linux (and probably does last I read) and the user wouldn't know any different, or care as long as it worked. I'm anxious to see how the masses respond to it, which could be quite different than the beta testers' reactions. Especially after it's been out for a while.

Help about win98 compatibility
And such a system *will* require the processing and security of a Windows Vista or better. I have ZERO interest in such a thing - an "appliance" - I don't want such a (all the time also watching what SFC logs in before and after, etc, etc, etc).

There was another Sidebar column but the second time I installed the toy, the 'gadgets' rearranged at every boot, pushing most of the ones I wanted to show by default, off of the desktop. How much this is a beta bug, I don't know. There is one bug - apparently also in RTM Vista and waiting for SP1 to hopefully fix

Vista beta vs. OSX
(For example, under Vista, burning does not work... that may well be cured by SP1.) 2) based on my most recent project (I'm available, btw :-) which is reasonably after testing on a notebook and a desktop, without issues, I'm declaring it Vista compatible. BUT I'm also specifying a WEI of 3.0 minimum to run it.

2. It includes two agents: base agent which will compile and run on all kinds of UNIXes, but without MIB-II and agent which will compile and run on SVR4/386 UNIX. .....

Visual Reviews of Mandriva 2008 Beta 2, SimplyMEDPIA 7.0 ...
I think there are even some You-Tube clips of Bill Gates trying to demonstrate beta versions of Windows NT-5, getting a blue-screen of death, By the time XP was released, most Windows 98 applications could be run under these enhanced emulators. There was lots of coverage, especially in publications like E-Week

Free OS/2 -- what would be necessary?
My system ,thanks to this news group, I have been a quite viewer for a long time. 2 plus years through the public preview of xp 64 My system is dual crash but no drivers for scanners from microtek and Nikon. vista runs beautifully and stays running as long as I stay with it. if I leave it it reboots after about

Vista/w2k8/Aero etc
One Care did early on in the Beta, and this was fixed during one of the Betas about the 2nd or 3rd Beta update. 2) Your criticism of UAC has an awful lot of agreement and MSFT will learn come February as the calls start pouring in when the general public starts getting Vista about the scope of problems with UAC

OS/2 mentioned in a Vista review
Why should I run Windows again? Much of which is beta quality at best. You mean like MS Word? Have they managed to make that usable yet? Pick just about anything with sub-1.0 version number that's included with many distro's. And the sub-1.0 Firefox which is far better than MS's latest and greatest browser.

Does XP still wipe out Vista's restore points when dual booting?
It does not have all the Vista code. And most importantly statistically it works a small percent of the time. That's why a repair install is a very important tool in XP, and since Win RE does .... After installing XP... Vista will be inaccessible until VistaProBoot is run from XP. Then everything is fine and dandy.

Office 2007 Beta 2
... its running fine on a 900mhz TB with 512 megs of memory, a guy who's blog i read has it going 'ok' on a Toshiba Tecra 8000, Pentium II, 400 MHZ, 256MB RAM. iirc he said that it works but you should be a little bit patient. the new eye candy will be taking a decent amount of cpu time (all Windows pre Vista does

RIP HD-DVD -Toshiba Officially Drops HD DVD
I think that at least 1.5 GB or RAM is needed for Windows Vista, better still, 2GB of RAM. It is also common sense that Windows XP requires at least 256 MB of RAM to to some wrong posts, this will still be available even after vista hits the stores.

Outlook 2007 process shutdown
Ubuntu does what Vista does (arguably better), on cheaper hardware, and it costs *nothing*. Let's compare, shall we? Microsoft Vista Deployment Vista-ready But then even der Furher made the trains run on time. A few good ideas do NOT make up for the companys behavior and mediocre products since the W2k days.

Vista is much nicer if you turn off UAC
I agree with you as far as customization options, apparently, transferring IE 7 to XP does not make as much sense - theme-wise - as it does on Vista. ....

2) I read Roberts' solution and have seen similar solutions on the Outlook groups. They often don't work. 3) For many Outlook users on Vista, Outlook's gui will always shut down in my experience, but some of the time the process remains running.

Sure, right after you prove how Windows Server or XP embedded isn't able to handle the demands And outside telco there's still a lot of industries that don't run ....
