Cant wait.

Like Beta 2, the Technical Refresh will be available for public download at a cost of $1.50, a nominal fee Microsoft has added in order to recoup some of the distribution fees associated with the beta. Current Beta 2 customers, however, will receive the update free of charge.

For those users, the Technical Refresh will be distributed via the Web as a patch that is installed over Beta 2.

you are kidding right ? windows 95 is over dood time to upgrade :p

i'm looking forward to the refresh ... my biggest request is that they bring the word art from excel into word ... and make access more stable, it crashes left right and center !

from what i have seen, the 'refreshed' UI looks good ... i like the smaller 'orb' and im looking forward to the collapsable ribbons, they are ridiculously large in beta 2 and it drives me crazy.

On the first page of this thread, oqwarrior said 9am PST. I've read the same time elsewhere. Go to one of the time zone converter sites and it'll work it out for you in local time. :yes:

any idea what's new?

Jensen Harris' blog has a short-list of UI changes including:

  • Improved support for the minimized Ribbon
  • Visual redesign of the "Northwest" corner of the programs
  • Double-click the Office Button to close the window
  • Silver color scheme

A full changelog will also be made available when the TR's released.

Time of release is always given in Redmond time. If you have loaded Vista ever notice what time is on the clock when it asks you to set the time?

Mine always comes up with the right British time :|

Ugh.. so many things to download this month.... my quota... can't take it much more...

(Vista RC1, Company of Heroes Demo, now this... :'( )

I only get a 40 GB quota :/ Easily gone over, let's hope my ISP doesn't complain!

I assume this TR is being released 8:00 am GMT (British/London time)?

      By Copernic · Posted

      Fan Control V269 by Razvan Serea Fan Control is a powerful and versatile portable utility that allows you to monitor, control and customize the fans of your GPU and CPU to keep your machine cool and running smoothly. Fan Control supports a wide range of devices and hardware configurations, giving you complete control over your computer's cooling system.

Combined with the plugin system, Fan Control is unlocked for many generations of hardware to come. Main features Guided setup process on first launch Save, edit and load multiple profiles Change the theme and color of the application. Multiple temperature sources ( CPU, GPU, motherboard, hard drives... ) Multiple fan curve functions, including a custom graph Mix fan curves or sensor togethers (max, min, average) Low resource usage Advanced tuning with steps, start %, stop %, response time and hysteresis FanControl V269 changelog: Allow only 1 service client at a time App title no longer show the full path Add service retry policy by default Fix pre-pairing issue between control and speed cards Fix a bug with ADLX % (duty) reporting Download: FanControl V269 | Installer ~20.0 MB (Open Source) View: Fan Control Homepage | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
