I can't do screenshots... MSDN EULA forbids it and I plan on being a nice boy :laugh:

Screw that, I'll post screenshots as soon as I get it finished installing.

Rock on Hurmoth. I have an empty 3GB partition. Does anyone think this is enough to test Vista on?

Quick question in MSDN which one would get me a copy of Vista, like the cheapest one?

Operating Systems subscription. And if you're a student, you can get the academic version of it too. ;) Whatever you do, don't buy directly from Microsoft (my opinion, go with Provantage.com), as they are very expensive.

That would be it :yes: And for the price, look at what you're getting:

10 license for the following:

Windows 98 SE

Windows 2000

Windows XP

Windows Server 2003

Windows Longhorn (all milestones, plus the final release)

... and much more!

Is that the acamdemic version? Do MSDN subscribers get discounts on retail releases of Operating Systems?

Also, will there be a Windows Vista Media Center Edition?

No, that's the min you need for Vista access. Not sure about Media Center. As was stated, most of the media stuff will be coming in Beta 2.

Also, MS is starting to mess with connect.microsoft.com. The program name has been changed to just "Windows codename Longhorn" and the program dates have defaulted to June 1. Hopefully they are updating it.

how long does an MSDN subscription last?

One year.

But the software comes to you on DVD or CD (whichever you choose) and you can keep it along with the product keys ... as they never expire. You just don't get anymore updates unless you renew.

    • Microsoft releases Visual Studio Code 1.124 with smarter autonomous AI agents by Paul Hill Microsoft has just released Visual Studio Code 1.124 with a focus on faster agent workflows and improved agent autonomy. Microsoft outlined the following features as the key items in this update: Autopilot: Autopilot, enabled by default, is now smarter to determine when a task is truly done. Background sessions: Quickly send a request in the background and keep composing the next session. Session navigation: Search, jump, and step through agent sessions with the keyboard. Browser history: Revisit and search pages you've already opened in the integrated browser. With VS Code 1.124, Microsoft has enabled Autopilot by default. For those that don’t know, Autopilot is a chat permission level that you can pick to give agents permission to take initiative and act autonomously, without needing explicit user approval for each action. Also related to Autopilot, Microsoft introduced Advanced Autopilot, which changes how Autopilot decides when to keep iterating and when to finish. This helps you get more complete results without manually monitoring loops. This feature works using a small utility model that reads a transcript of the chat and decides when the task is done. Another new feature in 1.124 is the Agents window, which lets you easily explore, iterate on, and review agent sessions across projects and machines. Previously, starting a new agent session meant waiting for it to load before you could compose the next one. With this update, sessions can be requested in the background. This VS Code update also brings session navigation updates to switch between them more quickly. The update also lets you reload or reopen the Agents window so that it no longer loses your layout, so you will land back where you left off. If you use the integrated browser in VS Code, you will notice that it now retains the history of visited pages. Suggestions will now show when typing in the URL bar and can be managed by using Ctrl+H within a browser tab. The browser now also lets you customize the toolbar more; just right-click on the toolbar area to the right of the URL input. Finally, the browser has faster agentic text entry. Another improvement is experimental enterprise-managed Copilot plugin policies that allow admins to centrally control which chat plugins and plugin marketplaces are available to developers. If you have VS Code installed, 1.124 should install automatically, or you'll get a prompt. If you don't have it installed, get it here.
