Looks like it could be fun to dive into the beta scene again :)

The reason why I signed up for Neowin those long years ago anyways! :yes:

There's not much of a beta scene anymore. Back during the XP days and to a lesser extent the Vista days there was. But now? No way. I don't consider seeing one or two previews enough to spark a beta scene. I lost interest after Windows 8 to be honest.

Why do all the screenshots crop the desktop so much? We can't even see the taskbar for example.

That's what happens when Microsoft doesn't communicate accurate information to the public.

While I agree that they haven't said much if anything on the other hand it's also backfired on them when they talk things up way in advice and things don't work out and end up dropped or changed. I think it's good to talk about it when they're close to releasing something to users.

perhaps its has no task bar, you know, like windows 3.x ?

There is one, in the second picture you can see the very top of it a bit.

Just a service pack nothing to be excited about.

It doesn't sound like just a service pack really.

Uhm, yeah, FAKE...

This actually could be real, it could be the login page for the Microsoft Internal Network (I can't remember what it's called exactly) that stores all the things Microsoft are working on, it's where people like Canouna and superDAE got there information and ISO's from.

Why Windows Live ID, I thought its all Microsoft account now ?

No idea, but looking closer at the image, the text on the Microsoft Employee tile is much lower than the text on the other 3 tiles

Not sure why anyone would fake something like that though, usually fakes are of the desktop / version number etc

Seconded. For me personally, Windows has become like Chrome or a web browser, just another update. If it comes, whoopee! Personally, I think Vista's gestation, Windows 7's stability from beta and Windows 8's non-existence of beta has kinda left me jaded.

MS Corpnet. Actually the pic also came from soft-forum from microsofter.

btw, I suspect(it's just a guess) canouna has lost his corpnet login after win8 RTM'ed, or maybe he's on a more strict NDA.

Something like a "backpage news" : If you search for windowsblue.com; it was registered by MS in 2012, long before win8 RTM

Well, it seems MS had wanted it to be the winblue site? Then hit windowsblue.com......LOL, seems they lost interest in using this URL afterall. :laugh:

Presently there is a general mist of mystery(or expectation) around, a guy uploaded a file to a host site

screen1220.jpg

It's just a text file reading:

9410131a8b705a7113628d23e3e795e8 *9347.0.WINMAIN_BLUEM1.130220-1500_X64FRE_CLIENT_EN-US-IM1_CCSA_DV5.ISO

is

The time stamp 1500 is different from the 1504 posted by Khohol in his soft forum post, and the hash may be fake, or somebody said it is actually the x86 hash (2.41G). People are hoping that it is a prelude to leak, just wait and see. :o

    • Limited Prime Day deal sees Amazon Echo Show 11 is at its lowest price yet

      By ad47uk · Posted

      I did think about a Echo show once and it would be useful to see what my cameras see. But my brother got one and I changed my mind. Adverts and not really worth the price just to see my cameras. I have a load of dots and a Echo Gen 4, they will do.
    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval

      By ad47uk · Posted

      I asking where you are from or live, because if you don't live in the U.K, why are you so bothered? That is another reason I voted out, E.U and people poking their noses in where they should not be. Sadly we still have it, Trump, and his cronies. Putin as well and no doubt others. It makes no difference what we believe, if we made the right choice or not, we are out. As I said to someone when the news first broke we have voted out, we just need to make the best of it. I have no problems with closer ties to the E.U, we still need to trade. Just don't want to be in their club.

      So you think I voted out because i am anti-immigrant. I am fed up with those that come over and think that we owe them something. The ones that are at the moment coming over from France where they are already in a safe country because they think and no doubt will get everything chucked at them. While people who were born and bred here get very little. I have nothing against as i have said before those that come here and work. In fact I know full well that our NHS would struggle without them. I do have a problem with those that come over here and try to push their religion and their way of life onto us. My reasons for voting out was because of what the E.U is and is also becoming. I did not agree with Freedom of movement, not because I don't want people over here, but because people need to be checked before being allowed to cross borders and that goes both ways. But my main thing was because the E.U is becoming if not already a united states of Europe. The only reason countries like Poland and Romania joined was because they had no money. When my partner left Poland, she had nothing, Poland had nothing, that is why she left. Wanted to learn something and earn a living. The E.U would have us back according to Michel Barnier. https://www.euronews.com/my-eu...ator-barnier-tells-euronews Why are you so scared to say what country you are in?

      draw.io Desktop 30.2.6 by Razvan Serea draw.io desktop is a downloadable security-first diagramming application that runs on Windows, MacOS and Linux. Creating diagrams in the desktop app doesn’t need an internet connection. This is useful when you are disconnected or when you must create diagrams in a highly secure environment, where data protection is of the utmost importance. When you use the draw.io desktop app, your diagrams will be stored on your local device. Because this is a stand-alone application, also designed to run offline, there are no interfaces to cloud storage platforms available. Of course, you can still store your diagrams in folders that are synchronised to your cloud storage if you wish. Easy-to-use diagram editor The draw.io apps work just like the office and drawing tools you are used to using. Drag and drop shapes from the shape libraries and drag to draw connectors between them. Drag connectors to add waypoints and set a precise shape and position, or let them reroute automatically. Double click and start typing to add a label to anything. Create tables and swimlane flows with a familiar tool. Style shapes and connectors with customisable palettes, sketch options, fonts and text formatting tools. Search for shapes, including in open-source icon libraries. Use our vast libraries of shapes and templates, organised into logical categories, to create a range of diagrams and infographics. Generate diagrams from text descriptions using our smart templates. Diagram faster with keyboard shortcuts. draw.io Desktop 30.2.6 changelog: Uses electron 42.5.0 #2452 Updates to draw.io core 30.2.6.
