basix Share Posted November 17, 2006 Damn it! I always voted and gave feedback on bugs but never filed one myself! Hopefully they'll see that! I experienced very few bugs to be honest. Those that I did had already been logged so I voted and gave feedback. Is this not of importance? meh. Not looking for handouts anyways. Link to post Share on other sites

Medking Share Posted November 17, 2006 Ok now please answer these questions: 1. Were you invited to Beta Test Windows Vista and joined Connect? Yes? Go to Question 2. No? You do not get a copy of Windows Vista RTM. 2. Did you log at least 1 Bug? Yes? You get Windows Vista RTM. No? You do not get Windows Vista RTM. Quesiton 1: I recieved an email in September saying that I could test the RC1 of Vista, Microsoft office 2007 and Longhorn Server. if i remember correctly then I recieved this email several days before the RC1 was released. I had already been registered with Connect and ive filled out the Scenario voting site nearly complete and ive reported 4 or 5 bugs so far. i reported most of them last week but one was two days ago so im not sure if ill get it... medking Link to post Share on other sites

Cask1 Share Posted November 17, 2006 I got in the program in March, and already got my e-mail and access to download the build. So to the guy that said that you had to be testing since beta 1 to get this build, you?re wrong. Link to post Share on other sites
smctainsh Share Posted November 17, 2006 Could it be something to do with the country you are situated in? I'm in NZ, and I still haven't got mine. :( Smctainsh Link to post Share on other sites
Dazog Share Posted November 17, 2006 Yes for the love of god If you didn't START beta testing when beta 1 started AND submit one bug report. YOU WILL NOT GET A COPY Some people need to get over it and hope to be invited to test the next OS or Service pack 1 for Vista. Link to post Share on other sites

YOU WILL NOT GET A COPY Some people need to get over it and hope to be invited to test the next OS or Service pack 1 for Vista. Incorrect. You can get it if you started beta testing from beta 2 + at least one bug report. Link to post Share on other sites
Dane Share Posted November 17, 2006 I sumbitted a few bugs, and did their voting thing...didnt get the email, and i am part of the Windows Vista, Longhorn Server and IE 7 Beta. Meanwhile my friend who didnt POST ONE ****ING BUG just got an email to download it. What a ****in load of ****. Link to post Share on other sites
Justin- Share Posted November 17, 2006 Can they be transferred to another person? :p Congrats to those who submitted a bug report. :) I didn't really have a system to use it on extensively during the beta. It doesn't matter though, I don't mind paying for it when it comes out. Planning on building a new PC before Vista comes out ... then I'll buy it ... Link to post Share on other sites
