Anyhow..i am waiting for new Ultimate extras & innovate Vista specific apps!...i am getting Ultimate version within a month (in india)
Of course you do, it doesn't begin for another 2 hours 10 minutes.
what time is 1:45PM Pacific time in the UK?

PST is GMT-8, so it should be at around 9.45PM in the UK.
BTW, I've checked the actual pricing in euros for windows vista. The difference with the US prices is HUGE. Any reason behind this??
Home Premium UPGRADE is around 225-250 euros. That's A LOT compared to the 150 bucks it costs in the US.
I've even seen Ultimate between 400 and more than 500. With XP it was the non upgrade versions that were really expensive.. but the others were ranging from 80 euro to around 150-200..
:-(
They will be arriving along with Palladium, WinFS, Monad, SecurID integration, PC-to-PC synchronization, full XPS support, the end of Spam, TV that is 'revolutionized' by the internet, and charitable foundation investment ethics.
(I havent been to a OS launch since Win95... oh the joys</sarcasm> of seeing Bill dance to the Stones)
Yeah I'm on Ultimate here as well.

and here lo. Typical MS for it to start late. Kinda fits in with Longhorn / vista though lol, a nice long delay
edit: They just fixed it
Did you see him at CES? He was looking from left to right....if you look close enough you can see he looks in the same place everytime...gives the illusion that he isn't reading from it.
It is his last major OS release though so I guess he wants it to go smoothly
I'm running Vista and I don't see anything, hear only the audio
I restarted and I see now the video.
Screw WMP11
Well sortof...that was close enough to a mess up
Poker and groupshot are on there though
I don't have Ultimate yet so I didn't know
This sound guy needs shooting!
They really shouldn't let him announce people
Pfft.
So let me get this straight... a family thought it would be a good idea to add a "burn" button to a program, so Microsoft invited them to Vista's opening and gave them the first copy??
oop there r your fireworks
Was it the actual application or was it part of the viral video?
HAHA...that was actually balmer...
Great.
Oh god I sense a band coming...and uncool band
While the invisible man talks
Oh by the way EXTRAS are on update now. poker is boring I wish I can play it online.
OEM BABY!
bet this was all setup using a vista media center pc hahaha
Hell yeah!
This is such a screw up! Hwhahaha
This is such a screw up! Hwhahaha

100 Comment limit?
tried it with 500k and 200k streams
On top of that, it looked to me like windows actually got HARDER to use. One of key things about ease of use is simplicity, and microsoft strays FAR from this. It just all got way too complicated.
By no means am I an apple fanboy, but the macworld iphone keynote address was one of the most interesting and fun to watch presentions ever!
so those are my thoughts anyway...
Seems like show was prepared in "last 5 minutes"... Disgusting...
my other audio files work ok its just this webcast.
any suggestions
Thanx
Most exciting bit was from the Mom, saying, "It was because of me the DVD button was put into Vista"..
Oh please......major yawn...
Watching Gates on the Daily Show was better though...
ah, anyway, hoping for a quick release for Leopard.... man that better rock or else im not getting excited anymore
about OS's...
