The powertogether.com site doesnt work for me.

Does it work for anybody else. I just wanted to see if my status changed at all but it says service unavailable.

Same problem, was working fine yesterday.

Maybe they are editing the website or something to say our gift is shipping, but I don't see why they need to take the site down, I doubt the site is getting alot of traffic so I don't think high traffic is to blame.

Seems as if they didn't know about the site being down. It probably doesn't have anything to do with shipping.

The site is back up now and it doesn't look like anything has changed from before it went down. :(

And don't get too discouraged if when you register you don't see anything for your state, of that the city mentioned in the state is far away. I registered for the event in St. Louis and it picked up that I actually live in Kansas City and low and behold there is actually an event in KC at the Hyatt... but didn't show that until I registered... confirmation showed that...

By the way, Neowin looks nifty now...

and Buckethead RULEZ!!!!!

Mark Brown just updated the channel 9 forum that they should start to ship late this week and the beginning of next week. :D

Great news!! I saw mention somewhere today that a number of hardware developers expect to have Vista ready drivers available by the end of the month. No mention though if they were both 32 and 64bit though. I'm still unsure of what one I'll install, 32bit or 64bit. Will most recent 32bit apps run under Vista 64bit?

BTW: Has anyone seen that tax form for receiving both products?

a shipment confirmation?

Dear xxxxx;

Congratulations, you?ve learned how to build well-connected, visually stunning applications with Windows Vista, and now your free, full-licensed copy of Windows Vista Business is on its way.

Please be patient. We cannot ship your gift until Windows Vista Business is released to manufacturing. Your free software should arrive in six to eight weeks after RTM. If it doesn't arrive after eight weeks, please contact a customer service representative at Windows Vista and Office Kit Order Admin. Be sure to have your confirmation numbexxxxxb> on hand.

    • Why Delta Chat is the best decentralized messenger you have probably never tried

      By zikalify · Posted

      You are mostly right about the ephemeral nature of it. As I mention in the article, if you dont add a second device or take a backup of your account before uninstalling it, then yes you will lose access to your account. That said, in terms of actual user experience when you sync multiple devices your message history carries across and there's also a Saved Messages chat like there is on Telegram to send messages and attachments between your installs. But yh, what you point out are correct and its not trying to emulate Messenger or Telegram.
    • You've tried DuckDuckGo and Brave Search, now get serious with SearXNG

      By zikalify · Posted

      OK so SearXNG is a meta search engine that you can install locally or use via a public instance. It scrapes other search engines which you choose and then sorts the results. Not as complicated as multiple relays
    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval

      By excalpius · Posted

      The only difference here is that you think you came up with these reasons. You didn't. These age old fearmongering lies (that were NEVER true) were funded by and the anger stoked by Putin through proxies like Farage (and later in the USA, Trump) and filtered down through the skinheads, Neonazis, etc. until it reached the uninformed, ignorant, and gullible -- never realizing they were being played for fools against their own best interests. Even now, despite all of the EVIDENCE proving that Brexit was a terrible mistake for ALL citizens of the UK and that its supporters were tricked by Putin's proxies into sabotaging their own nation, you're still here defending these well-known lies as if they were ever true. Not only are they not true. They NEVER were. So, when are you going to realize that you were lied to and actually get angry at the liars and charlatans who lied to you, instead of blaming the innocent people they lied to you about?
