It is Build 5308!

No, not the same 5308 that was released last week, a different 5308!

The build released last week was 5308.17; where .17 means recompile number 17.

On February 28th, 2006, a new build was released, just days after the first. This build, 5308.60, is the 60th recompile, and purportedly more stable, less troublesome, smoother, faster, and without the memory leaks.

Though the reports of its stability and near perfection may have been exaggerated, NeoSmart Technologies has obtained proof of it?s release.

An about screen doesn't prove anything, easily photoshopped. What could be new?

Well, I cannot tell you what's new, simply because I don't know yet, but I can tell you that there is a new build on Connect. So regardless of whether or not the screenshot's fake, he is telling the truth about the new build :yes:

thanks hurmoth!

me and kris are testing out every edition as we speak:

business

home

ultimate

server

and more

So wait, this build has more than one edition now? I would have figured that MS would start that kind of testing after the April CTP when the core OS isn't killing itself from showstopper bugs.

    • Most AI-powered mainframe migration vendors expected to fail by 2030, Gartner warns

      Most AI-powered mainframe migration vendors expected to fail by 2030, Gartner warns by Paul Hill Credit: Pexels You may have read that many companies still run code written in ancient programming languages like COBOL and pay a handsome sum for those who can maintain that code. Well, it looks like this area of the tech world could be the scene of an AI bubble. It turns out that there are mainframe exit vendors, helping companies move their legacy mainframe systems to modern cloud environments or servers such as Microsoft Azure and AWS, using generative AI tooling. Unfortunately, 75% of these vendors are now expected to pivot or cease operations as market realities take hold by 2030. Alessandro Galimberti from Gartner said: Some of the companies in the mainframe exit market are IBM, 21CS, BMC, Broadcom, Rocket Software, DXC, GTSG, and Kyndryl. The reasons some of these firms are expected to quit the market are a reset of market expectations and a decline in demand for one-size-fits-all migration solutions. The reset in expectations is likely to be driven by cost overruns and threats to business, and the potential occurrence of critical failures within businesses as a result of bad transition implementations. These insights from Gartner are pretty interesting because it’s a specific area of the market where doubt is being cast on generative AI. Many people have cast doubt on whether AI companies will successfully justify the massive amounts spent on GenAI to date, and this data from Gartner suggests the road could be rocky for GenAI.

      If you have the budget...! Some solo or indies just want to either learn or start their game and aren't in a capacity to pay salaries or to contractors... Get real.
