Server Longhorn Beta 1

[thollian]

has anyone installed it?

how is it?

[ZeroBS]

I was wondering the same thing. The last version I saw and have is the LongHorn 3671.x86fre.Lab06_N.020821-1724 build which is a little old now!

But someone should install the new version and post pics for all of us not part of the beta.

BTW: I have two versions of that very old build the ads and the pro

[thollian]

I will install it later today and post some screenshots....

[Jason]

Some one please post some Active Directory shots or list the changes they see ?

I've heard that it was released the same day that Vista Beta 1 was, but I can't find any articles talking about it (besides talking about the release date). It would be very interesting to read something about it :unsure:

Windows .net server brings back memories.

How come the copyright on that logo reads 1985 - 2002, I would have thought it would have been updated.

Aero on a server :blink:

Me also thinking that :)

it would be a pointless use of resources.

Agreed :pinch:

[alphatesterusa]

They spent lot of time to include ?Aero? into the Server version.

Some say it?s a waste of resources.

Some say it?s appreciation of what they have done.

I read that Aero would not be included as part of Server.

I wouldn't have thought it will be in the RTM. All the same, there's no point complaining I'm sure it would be perfectly simple to disable it.

I want it gone so it stops people enabling it.

I could careless if it is there, just as long as by default it is disabled. Why shouldn't people be able to enable it if they want too? There is no question that Windows Server OSes are more stable and more secure then desktop OSes, which is why I run it on my notebooks and desktops. Now I don't have the pretty XP graphics turned on, but I'm not going to get all bent out of shape if someone else does :rolleyes:

[thollian]

There is no Aero on startup with Longhorn Server...

here is the desktop upon first bootup...

[alphatesterusa]

Come on, enable 'Themes' and it were there.

Only do it if your machine can handle it.

By default, only Server related issue are ava.

Enhanced Screenshot enclosed and I stop here for discussion.

Why is the server section so dead ??

Any pictures of Active Directory changes ? or changes to other server related features ?

[offroadaaron]

y use a program to capture the destop ;\ when there is a built in windows feature that does it

[sicburns]

Servers don't need a good GUI only good stability!
