zomg, I cannot wait any longer!

I took the day off work for this!! I got myself a pot of coffee and I'm ready to go!

Wow. It's great that you're hyped up and all, but isn't that a bit of a waste of a days leave?? I imagine you won't be best amused if it doesn't end up getting released until either late, or tomorrow :)

How many hours from now?

Seems they generally release just about everything around 9AM PST, Noon EST, which is about and hour and a half from now. Of course, in reality I have no idea, but if I had to nail down a time, that would be it. I'm probably way off though :wacko:

Hello, has anyone got any info on SQL 2005 SP1 compatibility or got SQL 2005 SP1 on vista or longhorn server 5600 RC1 running ? Currently running vista 5738 & longhorn server 5600 with visual studio 2005 with SP1 beta, currently there are no MS solutions to fix this rather major problem, any info would be very gratefully received.

Possible link to 5744

This is just RC2 chaps! How are going to be during RTM?

Personally, I hope this build is a "quality build" Installs perfectly, no conflicts and works well with software..

5 years of following longhorn/vista all leading up to this...

Anyone want some of the old milestone alpha releases?? So leaked by M$ anyway... (Just kidding!)

Those who "tested" Whistler/Windows XP may remember how many "unofficial" beta builds were leaked? And how hardly any internal vista builds have hit the web??

Dell XPS 600 owners like me, ar keeping everything crossed that this build installs!!!

COME ON M$!!

I had the day off for HL2 release and completed it within a day. Was well worth it :p [/GEEK]

I unlocked it the minute (literally, the minute) it was available on Steam (I had it preloaded for a month) I think it came out at 10:01 my time or something like that.

...I stayed up playing all night long, and beat it the next morning. Great (short) game :yes:

    • What browser do you prefer to use, and why?

      By +Edouard · Posted

      The current Statcoungter desktop numbers has Google Chrome increasing it's market share this past year and currently commanding 75% share. Everybody else is just making up the numbers with even MS Edge losing 3% this past year and has dipped just below 10% share which is staggering considering it's default on every Windows deviced purchased. If these numbers are correct that terrible Edge number is both devastating and embarrassing for MS especially when you add in the terribly low Bing market share. This leads me to ask a couple of questions as the default browser holding just less than 10% market share seems really weird. It used to be that all Chromium browsers were being counted as Google Chrome in some cases.  Is this still happening? Do these high Google Chrome numbers contains some Edge user numbers?

      Yeah, all web browsers seem to have some junk in them these days. The regular Brave browser has a lot of unnecessary stuff in it, similar to Microsoft Edge, so I don't see any benefits of using Brave over Microsoft Edge if you already have Microsoft Edge fully set up with adblockers and that. The cleanest or best free browser outside of 'Microsoft Edge' I’ve tried so far is 'Opera Air'. It still has some bloat, but nowhere near as much as Brave browser, for example. I have a system wide Adblocking program for Windows 11 that doesn't just blocks ads in the the web browser, but over the whole thing. I don't really need a web browser with an inbuilt adblocker because of that.

      I'd trust open source stuff on github more then closed source binaries from Microsoft.
