chavo Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 To all MSDN whiners: You are NOT official beta testers. Official beta testers get this build first as their job is to chase bugs. The beta testing aspect of MSDN is secondary to the other things you receive. It has nothing to do with money as you are not paying Microsoft to beta test their software (although I'm sure MS wouldn't mind). And in five years from now you're going to look back and see how idiotic you are acting. You're going to see how your petty whining is ruining the thread and the internet as we know it. Please go to mommy and tell her how much this hurts you, but keep this thread free of the incessant bitching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connect have priority over this because they ARE beta testers. Besides, it's still really annoying anyway. Just wondering, can i installed it without burning it to a dvd? Erm, Well it HAS to be on a DVD, but you could try mounting it. the serial for Windows Build 5308 Main 32 bit DVD is this the same like 5270 ? its not on Microsoft Connect for build 5308 Well the serial is the same in ALL CTP for us MSDN. Look at the screen shot, do you see where it says "Vista 5270 and Up Product Keys"? The answer's quite right there :shifty: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stay with MSDN, you will get an activation key. With torrents you will not. Sorry I keep messing up with the quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sohman Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 hello everyone, i was wondering, could anyone tell who has installed the new ctp and is testing it at the moment, that, does it have all of the windows themes?, like jade etc!? thanks :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freak_power Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 I don't think this is going to get on games them selves. I think it's meant for to say, your computer is rated a 5, so it can play the latest games. Not old games that were out 3 years ago. Rated a 3 say, You computer can run the games, but not very good. etc. The best idea is to remove it. That's what i'm gonna do it. Actually, i'm making a list of things i'm going to remove from Windows Vista before i do install it. The list is going to be huge :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gio Takahashi Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Why can't you do it after you install Vista so that you'd know what's there? :s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrastudent Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Does it include WinFS? Try and keep up with the news, that was removed from Vista almost a year ago. It will be released separately after Vista launches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gio Takahashi Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 I thought FS won't be included until Vienna? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazket Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 There is no WinFS my friend. Microsoft will deploy it somewhere by 2007 or whenever they believe they are done with it. Forget about WinFS by now ok? ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
