Jeez silver service got in before Gold?

Well they wanted a wide range of users.

and him being indian probably put him quite up there. Gold subscribers got preferential treatment if there where two peopl with uniquely desireable "traits" and one wa silver and one was gold. Maybe there wasn't a lot of gold subssribers in India that applied, afterall it was mostly nightime there I think.

You guys who got accepted, when you get the preview let us know how it is.

But specifically someone let ME know how the hard drive option is?

Like the "install to hd" for games.

If thats still there and if it works good enough to the fact where it loads the game with the cd in but has everything on the hd, this way i can take the cd out in the middle of the process so all the stuff on the hd(besides the disc verification, thats why the disc is needed to start first) can run and I can have a NOT A LEAF BLOWER DVD drive running loud.

You probably can't take the disc out without it resetting back to the dash, but it won't need to read from the disc at all if the data is copied to the HDD so there should be no noise.

It goes to the dashboard when you press the eject on your DVD. but it does not spin the dvd drive (only for a piracy check) so there's no reason to eject it anyway.

there is a movie here showing how it works http://www.giantbomb.com/quick-tour-new-xb...perience/17-88/

I feel like Hitler in that movie, where he's told he didn't get in the NXE preview :cry:

Don't worry, I'm sure that's in the process of getting made now :p

I didn't get in either.

GameTrailers video of the NXE: http://www.gametrailers.com/player/42166.html

Still loading issues with avatar features (like you get with gamerpics now) and loading the friends list in the new guide... and that was without a game playing in the background, so I'm wondering just how much better the loading times will actually be...

Also, I hate the Wii-esque menu selection sounds.

    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows by Usama Jawad A couple of days ago, we reported that the latest Patch Tuesday update has seemingly resulted in a lot of issues for many users, including OneDrive and Dropbox access problems, BitLocker recovery lockouts, and BSODs. Although Microsoft is yet to acknowledge these bugs, it has confirmed another, relatively smaller issue across all supported versions of Windows. In an update on its Windows Release Health Dashboard, Microsoft has confirmed that after installing June's Patch Tuesday update (KB5094126), you'll experience unexpected behavior when leveraging Recycle Bin. Basically, when you attempt to delete an item from the Recycle Bin, the confirm dialog will show you the internal file name of that content rather than the actual name. For example, the file may be named abc.png, but the confirm dialog will ask if you're sure that you want to permanently delete $Rxxxxx.png from the Recycle Bin. This is pretty much it for the scope of the bug itself; it just displays the wrong name in the confirm dialog. The correct name will be shown in the list view of the Recycle Bin and if you restore the file, it will return with the correct name as well. This issue affects pretty much all supported versions of Windows client and server, including: Client: Windows 11, version 26H1; Windows 11, version 25H2; Windows 11, version 24H2; Windows 11, version 23H2; Windows 10, version 22H2; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB 2016 Server: Windows Server 2025; Windows Server 2022; Windows Server 2019; Windows Server 2016; Windows Server 2012 R2; Windows Server 2012 As things currently stand, Microsoft is working on a concrete solution that will be released in a "future" Windows update. It remains to be seen if the firm will wait till the next Patch Tuesday or roll out an out-of-band (OOB) fix. The good news is that commercial customers can deploy a workaround right now, but they will have to reach out to Microsoft Support for Business for additional details.

      A study by physicist Henry Tye of Cornell University suggests that the universe may not expand forever. Instead, it could eventually stop expanding, begin contracting and end in a "Big Crunch" roughly 20 billion years from now. Maybe not as we now know that time can flow backwards.

      Of course. Simply reverse the polarity.

      It is clear from this aricle that "Time Is On My Side" no matter which direction it is flowing., https://noai.duckduckgo.com/?i...m%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DsEj8lUx0gwY
