Yeah, believe me, I did the installer long enough in AIM 1999-2003, and I don't get why our installer behaves the way it does. Like why do we open up the progress bar in the lower right corner? Do people like that?

I hate to jump on you, but do you know anything about the other bug that we mentioned? About the formatting of your inputted text being messed up after c/p another conversation? I tried to submit a bug report for it a while back but I don't really know where to go to do that.

2 questions:

1) What in the world is this ad-hack version you guys talk about? (I am assuming it is a removal of the annoying ad on the AIM interface... where can I get it?

2) I am running Vista Business & whenever i hit the X button on the new beta AIM, It just moves the screen a little to the right and doesn't actually close it... Bug or is my computer going looney?

Yes I am getting that bug also.

So whats going on with this release? It just walks you through the install instead of doing it all automatically?

Yeah sorry about that....its the weekend and I was traveling last week to speak at a conference. As soon as I can hear back from our install team, hopefully we can get the install to me silent as a mouse. ;)

I found a bug. I can't scroll all the way down on my buddy list, if i try to force it to, the scroll window might go all the way down, but it didn't scroll to the last buddy. Or it will scroll all the way, but then it bounces right back up when i try to put my mouse over the last buddy on my list. I have a linked screen name, maybe its associated with that? But its rather annoying.

Also, even though I am one of the few or even perhaps the only one to experience this, my Smiley Showers STILL do not work in this release. I have the box checked, and I also the correct plugins installed with the latest versions.

One final thing, it seems as if when Buddies sign ON, My notifications do not work. They work when i receive an IM, or when someone signs off, but not for when they sign on.

Pretty rough

    • Here is the new Surface Laptop Ultra wallpaper in high resolution

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Here is the new Surface Laptop Ultra wallpaper in high resolution by Taras Buria Earlier this week, Microsoft announced the Surface Laptop Ultra, its brand-new high-end laptop powered by NVIDIA's brand-new RTX Spark processor. As usual, Microsoft gives each new device a unique wallpaper, and the Surface Laptop Ultra is no exception. While the device is not publicly available yet, somebody has already extracted its wallpaper, giving everyone a chance to get a piece of the upcoming laptop in its full-resolution glory. The Surface Laptop Ultra has a very dark, abstract wallpaper that resembles the stock wallpapers in Windows Server, albeit with much less color. Having this dark, grim wallpaper highlights the laptop's mini-LED display and its ability to cut off parts of the screen's backlight to achieve OLED-like black levels. However, if you also like light wallpapers, we made a white version by simply inverting its colors. You can download both wallpapers below (click the image, right-click it, and select "Save as"): The Surface Laptop Ultra is expected to launch later this year. Microsoft is not revealing full details yet, including the price. However, Microsoft confirmed up to 1 petaflop of AI performance and RTX 5070-level of GPU performance. The heart of the laptop has up to 20 CPU cores and 6,144 GPU cores. Additionally, Microsoft and NVIDIA boast high CPU efficiency for all-day battery life. As for the display, it is a 15-inch mini-LED display with a pixel density of 262 ppi and a maximum brightness of 2,000 nits. Of course, not everyone needs this amount of power, and certainly not everyone can afford it. For those who need a more affordable device, Microsoft is also preparing the next-generation Surface Pro powered by the Snapdragon X2 Elite processor. Weeks ahead of the announcement, details about this computer were leaked by a retailer. Do you like the Surface Laptop Ultra's stock wallpaper? Share your thoughts in the comments.
