New Vista Build 5308.60 Released!


Recommended Posts

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.

NOT the server version!!!

It is the MAIN versiaon. Server is still called Longhorn, and is availabse via a DIFFERENT link.

Yes, of course MS knows about it.... It is off their site after all!

Screenshots coming up soon.

Digg it here: http://digg.com/software/New_Vista_Build_5308.60_Released_

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.

    • Remarkably based article from Garter - apparently there IS someone working there that actually understands mainframe systems.
    • Calling it TDS doesn’t answer the question: why did this site skip prior UFC games but review this one, at this exact political moment?
    • Its the timing of its release, mixed with the timing of the review mixed with the timing of the event, when this site never reviewed previous iterations of this game that I could find.
    • Instagram just got "a long-requested feature" by Hamid Ganji Instagram has finally added a new feature that has been "long-requested" and it allows users to write an individual caption for each image or video in a carousel. The feature will start rolling out this week, and it’ll be available to all users. Previously, Instagram only allowed a single caption for all regular posts and carousels. This made it harder for content creators to describe every scene in a carousel and often forced them to write longer captions. However, with this new feature, every slide in a carousel can have its own caption, which can be viewed by swiping left or right. To use the feature, when writing a caption for your post, select “Multiple captions” from the dropdown menu in the caption area. You can then write unique captions for each slide. By swiping through the carousel and selecting individual slides, a dedicated space for writing captions will appear. Instagram says the feature will help audiences get the right context at the right moment. The ability to assign a unique caption to each slide in a carousel could be particularly useful for content creators and brands on the platform. Instagram says the feature will begin rolling out this week. The new feature appears to have been well received by Instagram users, many of whom have been requesting it for a long time. However, users are now asking for additional features, such as the ability to add new slides to a carousel after it has been published. Instagram has been introducing several useful features lately, but users who want access to additional tools and perks can subscribe to the platform’s Instagram Plus offering. Priced at $3.99 per month, Instagram Plus includes exclusive features such as 48-hour Stories, more detailed post analytics, and the ability to tailor posts or Stories to specific audiences. The subscription includes 11 new features in total.
