Beerman Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 I like much of what it offers and would buy it but only after the first 6 months. I'm not crazy about how much control it takes from you but can understand that in order to protect the majority of users, it has to be the boss. That's just not my style. I've seen some improvements from the early betas and they are listening to our requests. Of course, I've only reported 4 bugs and the true geeks are having much more luck. I just do use it that much and don't consider myselft a dedicated tester at this point. As more drivers become available, I'll try more things.

Beerman Posted February 22, 2006 Report Share Posted February 22, 2006 http://today.reuters.com/news/newsarticle....ISTA.xml&rpc=22 Seems like the info was put out prematurely! Or was it? I think they'd do anything to get free press but I really don't blame them. They're just playing the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ggrussell Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 I find it interesting that no where does that mention SMP or dual processor support. It did mention that 32bit and 64bit will be available in all versions. In WinXP, you have to purchase the PRO version to get SMP support. Just wondering how that will work with Vista.

Brendon Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 Given Micro$oft's recent edicts about motherboard upgrades requiring the purchase of new licences, where will that put Vista with dual processors? Will you need to buy dual licences? Would upgrading a motherboard then require TWO new licences? What about single processors with dual cores? . . .and what happens when the new 4-core chips are released? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
