Ok this thread moves so quick I can't even begin to keep up.

I think Neowin posted these and then took em back down... so unless we also get hammered, feel free to look at the images here.

Microsoft Expert Zone Featured Communities, like Neowin and PRO-networks were given exclusive screenshots this morning.

You can view those here: Windows Vista Beta 1 - Featured Community Screenshots

So if you've seen those, now you know where they are from... no one showing those shots got them out of Vista, they got them from MS. This is the first time MS has done this.

Another funny thing to note... the Press Release Photos Microsoft released are clearly doctored... and it appears they pasted Vista over all the "Longhorn" build text, which also explains why they all show 5:00 as the time. Kinda funny.

With a signature like that, you should be totally denied access to anything related to Vista... seriously... there is so much more underground coding that has gone on it is amazing. They have totally reworked the OS and have spent years doing it. I think it can only get better from here and I await the "perfect" OS which will be Vista.

I also meant to say that these came out of the "Hive" at Microsoft. I'm sure some if not all of you have heard of it by now. If not: www.InTheHive.com

      I just started using Teams (and “New” Oiutlook) at work (instead of Slack) and both are truly abysmal pieces of software.

    • Phone Dilemma

      By +InsaneNutter · Posted

      If you are willing to go to approx $200, then as mentioned in your other thread I think a refurbished Pixel 8 will be a great deal that will last you for years. I recently recommended that to someone at work, he was on a strict £200 budget, which got him an excellent conditioned refurbished Pixel 8 here. He's since told me its the best phone he's ever had and feels its a massive upgrade over his old Samsung A series device. I don't know the sites which deal in refurbished devices in the US, however I’m sure you will have some options like we do here. Failing that Ebay is also quite good in my experience. If you wanted something a bit cheaper, then you could maybe go for an older Pixel 7, these will still get security updates until the end of 2027. Even after that you have good third party OS support from LineageOS. It doesn't have to be a Pixel though, you can buy many older devices for a good deal that would be better than a new $100 phone and flash LineageOS to them: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/
    • Microsoft is bringing big performance improvements to OneDrive on Mac

      I don't use one drive, but then I don't use any cloud storage, not even Icloud on my mac. If I did use cloud storage, then I would not use One drive, not because there is anything wrong with it, but because I can use Icloud. The only reason I see to use one drive is if your job requires you to have access to it

      Not built in, which is not a bad thing. There are ways of adding cloud storage to it, Dropbox is the most well know that also have a client for Linux, but there are others.
