Crackler Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 theres really no actual proof stating either that 7106 has older code than 7077, or vice versa.. i wonder if we'll ever find the real answer Mmmm...thank you. That is basically what we have for the time being. No conclusive evidence of either. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luis Mazza Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 (edited) It seems that the 710x branch has debug code. They're pre-RTM and larger in file size. RCs are pure and made to be tested as the final product. It does make sense from what I've read. So all this hype around a big number is actually a product full of debug code. Go for the number and you get a bloat you otherwise wouldn't need right now with build 7077. But of course, the guys who installed build 7106 would never agree with this, because evidence and logic don't make much sense when you just want something "bigger".

gregrocker Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 This is not happening in 7106. There is apparently some problems with routers and such when Windows 7 is used. Make SURE you have applied all the latest firmware for your devices, if applicable. Great to know. Thanks. But some were reporting this bug on wired connections, too, so I am not so sure it was just a router issue. I swapped out my router, updated firmware, adpater, etc. and it kept dropping 2-3x daily on all except 7000 which didn't drop at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really have no idea if 7077 and 7106 are difference in size. I totally go my build dates and if some feature works that didn't previously. However, I was always told that bigger was always better, within limits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There we have another ass-umption you try to pass off as a fact :pinch: How do you know that there's debug code in 7106, but not in 7077? Did you have a look at the source coude for either builds? Certainly noit, you're just making up things as it fits you :x The bigger size could stem from pretty much anything, perhaps it's a surprise MS is saving up for the Rtm release and which MS hasn't activated yet.

I just like poking fun at people who adamantly fight for something with little if any facts to back anything up.

Ambroos Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 That's just because it collapses when it has less width available. It's exactly the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest neo7 Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 That's just because it collapses when it has less width available. It's exactly the same. You are right. I have the '7106' look under 7077. My fault, as I have plenty of screen room, so it never collapses to the other form here. Apologies for the confusion.

Lord Ba'al Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 That's just because it collapses when it has less width available. It's exactly the same. So it gets the other look when it collapses? I wouldn't know, as I never use it. The pic I posted is the default look it had when I launched it. Guess in expands by default in 1920x1200, as it has more space there.

TruckWEB Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 If 7106 is older than 7077, does that mean that the "new" RC build 7100 is even older than what we have in 7077 ?? What's the point of wanting RC if it's already older? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They collapse more and more the smaller the window gets, the least important functions going first. Try it in Office too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
