:) Microsoft is releasing 7000 copies of Longhorn 4051 Monday Oct. 27 at the PDC, and is making trial copies available on-line starting in November -- prob. for 10 or 15 USD. So relax and forget about weird, obscure download sites and cracks. The CD is a fully working, stable copy of the new Longhorn, pre-beta. Another week you can buy Longhorn and Enjoy ! :D

having never delt with a dual boot system i have two questions...

1. if you install longhorn on a separate partition it wont affect win xp pro installed on another partition?

2. if you have two operating systems installed windows will detect both and let you chose which os you want to start?

i hope all you tools that downloaded this get something bad happen to you.

they're giving it out to hundreds of people today, and then releasing it online in the next month or two

we are all talking about our legit builds that we got at PDC, and you sir are the tool

:edit: boy this sucker takes a while to detect your hardware does it not

Just a note... my Santa Cruz card wouldn't install in the PDC build... which means no sound.  I can't wait till the Beta builds come out.

FWIW, if you have the Turtle Beach 64 card...I downloaded the beta drivers and it worked okay. I'm not getting sound from my rear left/right channels...but at least I have sound.

Looks like Microsoft got smart. They know it's been leaked and would be leaked in the future so why not charge minimal amount for it and be able to control what people see. Nice job MS!

    • Still using Classic Outlook? Microsoft highlights 15 reasons to switch to New Outlook

      We do it all the time on our IT Service desk mailbox to add a reference, in the subject line, once it's been logged and then it's filed into the appropriate sub-folder. Other companies probably do the same thing.
    • Still using Classic Outlook? Microsoft highlights 15 reasons to switch to New Outlook

      By PsYcHoKiLLa · Posted

      "No. The "New Outlook for Windows" does not support non-cloud mailboxes (such as on-premises Exchange servers). Furthermore, because the New Outlook effectively functions as a web-based client, it requires all connected accounts—even standard IMAP or POP accounts—to route and cache data through Microsoft's cloud servers. You can verify the accepted account setups using the Microsoft Supported Account Types Guide." Built to fail "New" Outlook is basically just webmail in a window wrapper and it's usefulness reflects that.
