Vista beta Anyone had a go with the latest beta? I wasn't sold on it for a bit but after some use some of the features are really cleaver. Pretty as well, I like pretty things!
rob whats the windows skin you got for the startup bar really slick that like i meant the messenger option aint seen the vista one will look tho
does this beta support every thing tho, i fancied a try but wasnt sure cos some programs/drivers i use may not work with it. might give it a whirl anyway cos this shit box is in dire need of formatting
It's running fine (inc IE and photoshop at the same time) on a... 3ghz p4 (single core) 1gb ram radeon 9800 pro agp sata 80gb hard drive
Id not go over to using it yet as it's a bit buggy. I've not found anything that wont work with it yet, seems to run winxp software and drivers fine.
it does look very good indeed. i cant be bothered with the full vista beta atm but i have the IE7 beta and ive been wholeheartedly impressed with it so far.
I tried beta 7478 ~ 2 years ago.. It looks like its came on leaps.. the beta I had still had the side bar. Might get this and stick it on me spare 20 gig disk..
Wouldn't mind a shot of this - however dial up at home and no torrents through the work tittyweb HOWEVER i've just got an unofficial copy of MAC OSX for Intel - gunna install that on a spare drive, see what MAC people have been babbling about for yonks
you're just too use to the windows way of working...i'm sure if we'd have been brought up in the parallel universe where OSX was the main OS, we'd be saying the same about Windows
make sure your motherboard is fully supported first else u wont get anywhere. mine installed like a dream and was fast as fook! however as my m/b aint an intel based chipset (its VIA) I didnt have access to the pci bridge so no pci cards it's the dogs danglers mind - rock solid and fast as u like! as for vista - still far too buggy for my liking - i've had enough with messing on with various builds so im not waiting for final! very impressive OS mind.
