actually, it sounds they dont want me:

Status Program Application Date                                                                        Details Next Action

Pending Windows code name "Longhorn" Beta Program  7/18/2005 Details  Decline Participation

Whats up with that..i can click on the decline but i dont want to

everyone has that, its a last minute allowance to decline participation, it means nothing to you unless you want to drop out before they make you in permanatly

Question for you all: On my connect site, it lists the "Longhorn" and IE7 beta under "Current Active Sites", but nothing under "Program Participtation Status". I take it that all I have to do is wait?

I have an "Active" listed under Program Participation Status, you might want to double check with MS

They are releasing Longhorn Server today also.....

And I heard between 3 and 4pm PST today....so don't be too upset it isn't available right at 3

Windows Server 2007 isn't shipping until 2007, so why is Microsoft bringing out the beta today. I don't think the beta for the Server is coming out today. No one has metioned being nominated for that, and Microsoft isn't going to mix the betas, so no I don't think so.

yeah, anyone know what the minimum requirements are?

Not what it says on the box, but the REAL minimum.

Correction, the real minimum so you can actually have a good or smooth experience.

I want to use it on a 3.2GHz, 1.5gb Ram, 64mbnVidia G-Force FX machine.l

for the dutch people here, this guy has the beta already!:

Windows Vista, Server and IE 7 Betas to Arrive in Synch

Microsoft (Quote, Chart) confirmed to internetnews.com that it will deliver the beta 1 version of Longhorn Server on August 3, along with the beta 1 release Internet Explorer 7.

This says they are shipping together

They have been saying 128mb of video memory for the Aero Glass experience....but I have a feeling they might bring that down....

    • But apple has ASSURED us that this is private. So, it's private. I expect the same "leeway" shown Microsoft to be reflected here.
    • ASUS ROG Falchion Ace 75 HE keyboard is 27% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The ASUS ROG Falchion Ace 75 HE is currently $159.99 on Amazon, down from $219.99. That's 27% off and $60 saved on a keyboard that combines retro and modern design, while being one of the most responsive and adaptable 75% boards available right now (purchase link down below). The ROG Falchion Ace comes with the HFX V2X magnetic switches that allow you to set actuation anywhere between 0.1mm and 3.5mm with 0.01mm fine-tuning steps. It also comes with Rapid Trigger, a feature that resets the key the moment you release it rather than waiting for a fixed reset point, which makes a noticeable difference in fast-paced games. And finally, an 8,000Hz polling rate should make the response time feel instant. The build quality is decent, with dense plastic and powder-coated aluminum, which is expected from a keyboard at this price point. There’s also the onboard adjustment wheel, which lets you tweak actuation and Rapid Trigger sensitivity without opening any software. For competitive gaming, the ROG Falchion Ace is hard to beat at this price. And those who appreciate old-school hardware, especially those white keyboards we’ve all grown up with, will likely also appreciate the looks of this keyboard. A carry case is included.
