Where are the Powertoys?


Recommended Posts

(January 31, 2002 update) PowerToys will not be available today as previously stated here. We're sorry, because we know you like them a lot. PowerToys are currently being improved, and will be available for download in April 2002.

Hopefully soon. I just hope MS doesn't screw up again and say:

Here's my prediction:

After people found out that via Powertoys, you could use XP-Home to log onto networks, something intended only for those who payed much more for XP-Pro, Microsoft yanked the powertoys set. This is not conjecture, it's fact, if I remember right, only about 5 days or slightly more time passed between me seeing this on several sites and the subsequent removal from Microsoft servers. They do not intend to give you anything for free, so what will happen I predict is one of two things. 1. New features will be small and easily overlooked in the new powertoys set, all the while it will now be missing the auto-log on feature or made completely unavailable in XP-Home. or 2. Powertoys will never again see the light of day, permenantly delayed.

Hmm, guess they'll release the "new" powertoys on April 31st...

(April 31th == May 1st, I didn't see my mistake 'till after the reply. Oopsie :D)

How typical..., C3PO, Star Wars: "The Empire Strikes Back" (1980)
