Yes, I'm in bay 2, and was upgraded at the start of August. Here is the URL of my inbox: http://by2fd.bay2.hotmail.msn.com

I really have a feeling they tried catering to their older subscribers first. Those who have continuiously logged in and used the account constant from initial sign up. I've had the same hotmail address for 9 years now.

I?m sure that I read about this somewhere that they where going to:

Upgrade the oldest active accounts and then

The newer active accounts and then

The inactive accounts.

I have no idea where I saw this, I read to many sites like neowin, it would make sense to upgrade the active accounts, you would think they have probably had a massive upgrade to there data centers so you would want the new HDD arrays to get a good stress test make sure everything is working.

I?ve had a tour of an ISP / computing data centre here in Australia I was amazed, darn I?d love to see inside hotmail?s , I?ve searched google but was unable to find jack ** about there systems.

Anyway I?m rambling

Bye now

      If built properly, swapping out the backend should be an easy task, but as the article points out, it's just Apple not wanting to do this.
    • Microsoft's new Xbox Shutdown change promises massive power efficiency gains

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Microsoft's new Xbox Shutdown change promises massive power efficiency gains by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Microsoft has been delivering a lot of changes for Xbox Insiders to test in recent weeks, and today, another wave of changes aimed at consoles was announced. The latest drop is testing features that let users find mutual friends easier, customize their UI, and streamline wishlisting. When looking at an Xbox friend's profile, an option will appear to see mutual friends, perhaps to get a refresher on how you know that person. This will depend on the privacy settings. The same applies to when checking the profile of a person who is not in the friends list, offering a quick way to find out if this is a known connection. Next, Microsoft is giving the option to change how the 'Home' and 'Games & Apps' sections show off available games. There is a new poster style that users can enable for an "immersive library experience." "We’ve also made personalization settings easier to navigate and customize by separating Home and My Games & apps into separate sections," adds the company. "And to make personalization even more accessible, we’ve added new shortcuts throughout menus, so you can quickly jump in and tailor your XBOX experience the way you want." Moreover, heading to the store page of an unreleased game will now offer players the option to wishlist directly from the game card. Lastly, Microsoft is making a change to Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S consoles that are in Sleep mode, making them use the more energy-saving 'Shutdown' mode instead automatically. The company says this can increase power savings by up to 20 times without impacting "performance, gameplay, or your ability to receive system, games or apps updates overnight." The only down side seems to be a longer startup time that can take up to 45 seconds. The setting was originally introduced in 2023, and this is only the latest update to it. The power option can be changed from the console settings at any time. This Xbox Insider update is rolling out today to select members of the program. As usual, Microsoft aims to bring it to more Insiders over time before they reach all Xbox owners. Head here to find out how to join the Xbox Insider Program to get a chance to test these features and upcoming ones on both consoles and PC.

      2 was a fun game but felt a bit shallow, like not enough there. I hope this expansion fixes that.
