That is correct. Those are the RTM disc images.

Wait, so if you joined as a CPP, you don't get it?

CPP Members don't receive a copy of the final version of Vista.

Only currently active, invited members of the Windows Vista technical beta program who filed at least one bug are receiving this offer.

This means ONLY if MS invited you to test Vista.

INVITED

please don't get people's hope's up.

yo i got an email like in september which had some dude and a crash test dummy with some glasses taking an eye test and it said

The Vista RC1 is available now along with Microsoft 2007.

Then it explained everything and had several links. Is this the invite?? Plus i didnt file any bugs till about two weeks ago, is that alright??

thanks medking

Have to be apart of the technical beta

Starting from the first beta's.

For those who have received the email, were you directly in just a "Windows Vista" beta, or one that had other things in it? The one I was in was Vista, IE7 and Longhorn Server. I still haven't received my email?

Thanks,

Ok so lets get this straight, if you havent been testing since Beta 1 in July 2005 then theres no way to accquire it...

?

If you were not invited to join the Tech Beta program starting with the early vista builds, there still is a way to get it.... on january 31.

I was on Vista, IE7 and Longhorn Server also. I've got my invitation and i'm downloading. They can't send 20,000 emails instantly. Be patient.

i was in one that had windows vista, microsoft office 2007, and windows longhorn server...

dont know if i can get it then...ive voted on the scenario site and filled out 4 or 5 reports with recordings so i hope for the best...

i even did a dear microsoft lol (camera video)

I was in this program as well and I am currently downloading both isos. Good luck to you guys!

Have you checked http://connect.microsoft.com ? The survey might already be there ;)

Dont want to sound greedy but any news on office 2007

No news at all. They made it quite clear that there was no free version for Beta Testers.

I think the amount of goodwill and advertising generated by giving away a link (to active, invited Beta Testers) to a download of RTM of a product gives, it's probably worth it for Microsoft.

What a surprise this was. I got home this evening, and there the invite was in my inbox.

They say product keys MAY be physically mailed to us, so that may include a certificate of authenticity or something like that. (For when a handwritten key just isn't enough...)

    • FotoSketcher Studio 4.30 by Razvan Serea FotoSketcher Studio is a free creative tool that instantly turns your photos into artwork. With just a few clicks, you can apply styles like pencil sketches, watercolor, oil painting, ink drawings, cartoons, and abstract effects. Powerful yet simple sliders let you adjust every detail to match your vision, from subtle enhancements to bold artistic transformations. You can also improve your images with tools for contrast, sharpness, color, and brightness, plus add frames and text. It supports JPEG, PNG (including transparency), BMP, and WebP formats for both opening and exporting. Available for Windows (64-bit) and macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel), FotoSketcher also offers batch processing, manual retouching, and custom effects for advanced users. Completely free, including commercial use, with no ads or spyware. FotoSketcher Studio 4.30 changelog: New LUTs effect In the Photo Lab category you will find a new LUTs (Lookup Tables) effect for custom colour grading. It comes with 18 presets built right into the application (Cinematic, Kodachrome, Golden hour, Portrait and more), each with a live preview so you can see the look before applying it. Right-click the preview to compare with your original image. And if you have your own .cube files, you can load those from disk too. New "Stylize" category Added a brand-new Stylize category with four new effects. Three of them (Mosaic, Circles and Triangles) are built on the same space-filling idea, turning your photo into tiled mosaics, clusters of circles, or a low-poly triangle look. The fourth, Cartoon, is a bit different: it gives a clean graphic style with defined lines and solid colours. A little tip - set the colour intensity to 0 and Cartoon draws a pure outline drawing with no fill. Combined with the "Do not erase background" option, you can run it on top of any other effect to add crisp contours in two quick steps. Auto-Enhance and Full Reset Two small but handy additions. Auto-Enhance (just press E) tries to optimise your source photo - exposure, white balance, local contrast - for a 'dehazed', natural-looking starting point. And Full Reset clears everything back to a clean slate in one step (working image, history, LUT, script, brushes and sliders) without having to close and reopen the program. Press Ctrl+Shift+N, or right-click the exit button. Scripts The script engine has been updated to support all the new effects, with a few new commands and improved help. If you would like some inspiration, the recent scripting tutorial on this blog walks through several ready-made example scripts. The usual improvements The interface now uses new colour accents for better readability, the history gallery has had a few tweaks, and you can now open .webp images directly. On top of that, this release includes some performance improvements and a good number of bug fixes.
