Kr0z Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 - App Compatibility -- still a problem (poor), many apps I use are just as broken in this build as in the previous. - Speed -- so very very slow. Lots of Hard Disc chatter, unresponsive User Interface at times. It's a P4 530 with 1GB of DDR. Not good. - Features -- some, very few, nice new updates but overall this build is pretty poor and not really the quality of a beta build I would expect from Microsoft. That's it thats worth saying about 5231. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr_skrilla Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 this is a horrible review... did you try it on another system? what applications did it have problems with? like Jermey said above - learn to read... but I'm sure you probably did not download it LEGALY from microsoft. You know it is a BETA product and so it does not have full compatability so the performance issues could be due to your hardware... since you have no indication of what application didn't work can't really comment on that...... you are a real ______ to even post this. It might be interesting if you gave a few more details, a little info on your hardware... instead of just saying: "yeah, i installed it and it sucked- that's my review".... Anyways, i'm sure it was a legal copy too? Maybe that's a reason also... don't install pirated software. In conclusion, if you want to post reviews - at least have a little content, if you have issues then give some context, and don't donwload pirated software then write reviews about how it sucks.

Kr0z Posted October 18, 2005 Author Share Posted October 18, 2005 LMAO at the end of the day What defines BETA QUALITY? LMFAO 586687446[/snapback] Ahh. Hello!!? ..This build is not beta quality but is offered as a preview or our progress towards Beta 2.. That's from the email beta testers received, so even microsoft knows this build is not up to beta quality? So laugh all you want spammer, but you may want to know the facts before spouting off rocking horse feces. Thankyou. :angry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kr0z Posted October 18, 2005 Author Share Posted October 18, 2005 then why did you say something about the quality of the beta build? Microsoft said that it was not up to quality so why even mention it!?! 586687574[/snapback] By definition its a beta build. However by microsoft's advice it is not up to beta quality. There is a grey you know, not just black and white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
