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

    • yes AND no the "original" or plain/normal Optiplex 7010 won't be getting any more new firmware updates BUT the Optiplex SFF/SFF Plus {small form factor}, Micro/Micro Plus & Tower/Tower Plus 7010 editions DO get new updates such as this new one   and here are similar guides from the Dell web site for Dell systems: https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000390990/secure-boot-transition-faq https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000347876/microsoft-2011-secure-boot-certificate-expiration

    • Edifier S3000MKII hi-fi audiophile grade bookshelf speaker is at its lowest price now by Sayan Sen Yesterday we covered a bunch of Dolby Atmos soundbar deals with several ones from Sony, as well as from JBL, Samsung, Polk Audio, and more. You can check them out in this dedicated piece. Those are not audiophile category speakers though as they are built with home theater use in mind. If you are searching for the former then Edifier has its S3000MKII at its lowest price at the moment (purchase link under the specs table down below). This is a two-way bookshelf monitor speaker designed to produce accurate sound. While it may not produce the best high-fidelity audio possible out there, it should still be significantly better than what you will get on soundbars of this price range. As such it will do justice to high-res audio played back through it. The only thing that may feel lacking is sub-bass as Edifier claims the unit can go down to 38 Hz, which should be enough for studio monitor purposes, but not for deep room-shaking rumbling bass. Where this does excel though is in its treble reproduction. With its super-tweeter, it claims to go as high as 40 kHz in the frequency spectrum, which should offer a sense of "air"yness. This is an active speaker which means it packs its own amplfication. It has a top-notch Class D amp that may be able to rival many Class AB designs too in terms of sound reproduction quality. The technical specs of the Edifier S3000MKII are given in the table below: Specification Value RMS Output Power 256W RMS (Treble: 8W × 2, Mid-Low: 120W × 2) Tweeter Driver 107mm × 107mm Planar Magnetic Tweeter Mid-Low Driver 6.5-inch (179mm) Long-Throw Aluminum Diaphragm Driver Frequency Response 38Hz – 40kHz Signal-to-Noise Ratio ≥ 85dB (A) Bluetooth Version Bluetooth 5.0 Bluetooth Codec Qualcomm® aptX™ HD Wireless Speaker Link Proprietary 5.8GHz wireless connection between speakers Supported Hi-Res Audio Hi-Res Audio Certified, up to 24-bit/192kHz Digital Processing XMOS XU216 Digital Signal Processor Audio Inputs Balanced XLR, Optical, Coaxial, USB Type-B, Line In, Bluetooth Input Sensitivity (USB) 400 ± 50mFFs Input Sensitivity (Optical) 400 ± 50mFFs Input Sensitivity (Coaxial) 400 ± 50mFFs Input Sensitivity (Bluetooth) 450 ± 50mFFs Input Sensitivity (Balanced XLR) 1000 ± 50mV Input Sensitivity (Line In) 600 ± 50mV ADC Capability Up to 24-bit/192kHz DSP Capability Up to 24-bit/192kHz DIX Capability Up to 24-bit/216kHz DAC Capability Up to 32-bit/384kHz XMOS Processing Power Up to 2,000 MIPS Edifier S3000MKII Audiophile Active (Powered) Wireless Speakers: $799.99 (Sold by Edifier US, Shipped by Amazon US) If you do not have the kind of budget to spend on the S3000MKII, you can also check out the Edifier R1280Ts which is right now on sale at just $114 (its lowest price in a very long time).
