whoever said it wasn't popular ;) , for the most part is was always the same few people complaining

It sure seems that way :) Anyway, I finally started the download and it's coming down at 5.3MB/sec so I should have it soon enough. Now to see if I can get a product key :D

So what is the confirmation of available Windows 8 ISO and Product keys from Technet then, is it true there is only 1 key and a Trial download or is it the full normal install with 3 keys + 10 machine per key ?

Just heard a few rumours saying 1 key and trial

Servers are getting hammered since a couple of hours now. Still no Windows 8 RTM on it, so it's probably a bad sign :p

yep, finally loaded again for me, still just CP and RP :(

As soon as you receive the activation email and activate it you should yea, but with the servers getting hammered it might not arrive instantly

is it really worth it at this point to get a technet subscription today? since you'll be able to get it in a couple of months for a fraction of the price

When you order a new Technet subscription, it can usually take up to 3 days for the activation e-mail to be received.

I first ordered my Technet subscription on 22nd March 2010, and the activation e-mail came through on the 25th.

thank you for your reply guess I have to play the waiting game to get my details.

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By +samw61 · Posted

      I think the car analogy is more this: Left hand drive, basic commands on the left side of the infotainment screen. Right hand drive, basic commands on the right side of the infotainment screen. Granted, you're not swapping between the two often so it's doesn't really work. But it's to do with the proximity of you (your mouse, or the driver) to the controls.

      I mean, the old one was broken and so stupidly complex for many users, so I don't see that as a feasible option. A context menu needs to be simple to use, and for me the Windows 11 style actually worked really well for me, and many others. I used to have to scroll the damn context menu just to get to "file properties" in Windows 10. That was not a good experience, and I'm sure you'd agree. What they're trying to do is make it the best of both worlds, as clearly you'd prefer the Win10 style. I'm curious how they're going to do this.

      The "Show more options" has its place, as does the simpler context menu, but it should perhaps be a separate fly-out rather than relaunching the entire, old context menu. The old context menu was getting absurd in Windows 10. Often I'd have to make the context menu scroll just to get to "File properties" on my old laptop. Even without much installed, the amount of items was just too much. It's a context menu, not a "do all" menu. Making it configurable is fraught with challenges too, so I'm interested to see how Microsoft tackles this one.

      I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
