thats one of the reason why microsoft is microsoft , and apple is apple ........ :laugh:

Ok, I cant be bothered to read the whole thread, so excuse me if I repeat something.

1. This is old - it has been floating around for a few months now

2. It isnt the actual wallpaper - it was ripped from a screenshot of the desktop or something like that.

3. It is a tree - who cares?! :blink:

yep it is older than 4088. it was also shown during winhecsessions (4067)

Goodness...I'm appalled at the stupidity of some of the responses in this thread. Do you people even realize this is an internal test build? It's not even meant to be seen by you. We have more than a year to wait before LH goes gold. Besides, I think the last thing MS would be concerned about at such an early stage of development is a petty wallpaper. Sheesh...

The wallpapers in Mac OS X don't look all that great either. The ones that aren't some blue pattern/wave thing look too fake due to way too much photoshopping. The ones Microsoft uses are unedited (for the most part) shots so that they actually look like something natural. Sure, it sucks that they use low-res JPEGs, but that's not what makes a good wallpaper.

I seriously doubt you'll find beaches/desserts with a moon and blue sky like that. Same goes for the space 1 wallpaper from the first Plus! pack and Windows has a lot of abstract photoshopped pictures too like peace (the light blue/geenish one).

Soooo that brings us to my question!

What the f*ck are you talking about?

Ascent and Luna do look pretty good, although the touch-up work is evident. The ones I was talking about were wallpapers like Autumn, Stonehedge, and Tulips. Azul, Bliss, Radiance, and Wind are also pretty good but the colours seem too good to be true. They're not as bad as the completely fake "nature" wallpapers in OS X though. They don't give a natural impression at all due to the heavy photoshopping (assuming they're not renders).

Woah ! Holy crap, a crappy low-resolution wallpaper which doesn not even remotely resemble the originals quality, and looks obvoiously faked out of a small 1024x768 version creamhackered released on a fake teaser pic of a 408x build, damn we got something now.

5 pages of bull****, really - pathehtic.

* LH 4074 <~-Real-&-Fake Builds with Virus-~>

How can u tell if its fake or real, they look similar :blush:

em... cuz mi friend's longhorn 4074 setup looks strange :unsure:

it says porn on CDs or wuz it removable storage / back-up in the part where microsoft brags about the "newst and easiest to use windows YET" while it sets up with the gray screen. :ninja:

heh, 2things. 1st. this is old. second yours IS NOT 1600 you resized it. way to go lamer..

*pets his real BMP

    • SpaceX reportedly plans a Starlink mobile service for U.S. consumers by Karthik Mudaliar SpaceX reportedly wants to sell mobile phone plans directly to consumers in the United States as part of a wider expansion of Starlink. According to a report from the Financial Times, SpaceX president Gwynne Shotwell discussed the plan with investors during the company’s recent IPO roadshow. The company is also said to be considering building a terrestrial mobile network to complement Starlink’s satellite coverage. The plan is quite different from how Starlink currently operates in the U.S. mobile market. SpaceX already provides satellite connectivity for T-Mobile’s T-Satellite service, but T-Mobile remains responsible for the subscription, billing, and customer support. A Starlink-branded mobile service would give SpaceX control of the customer relationship instead. It could also turn the company from a partner of traditional mobile operators into a direct competitor. T-Mobile also began testing its Starlink-powered satellite service in early 2025. The beta was initially limited to text messaging and was also available to some AT&T and Verizon customers. The service has since expanded to support limited data access through selected apps, including WhatsApp, Google Maps, AccuWeather, and AllTrails. It is designed to provide a connection in areas where normal cell towers are unavailable, rather than replace a conventional mobile network. However, if SpaceX actually has a plan to serve nationwide, it needs to do more than just satellite networks and actually support on-ground operations. It can also partner up with existing carriers and become a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO). With that said, SpaceX has already spent heavily to support its mobile ambitions. Just last year, the company agreed to acquire wireless spectrum licences from EchoStar in deals worth a combined $19.6 billion. EchoStar's spectrum includes AWS-4, H-Block, and AWS-3 frequencies that could be used for both satellite and terrestrial communications. According to a SpaceX securities filing, the Federal Communications Commission approved the transaction in May 2026, although it is not expected to close until late 2027. There's no official statement by SpaceX for now. Pricing, availability, and other details remain unknown. Source: Financial Times
