Gelob Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 ^^ Exactly. But we can sense where microsoft would want some power users to maybe play around with it. In the end its bound to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AminoSC Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 yeh it does look a bit below everyone's expectations, apparently. just that...it's not supposed to do that. beta 1 and on is. this build is supposed to show the foundation of the os. the whole nice UI thing comes later on in the game. Again, the point of this build is not the UI. This is a build distributed at a Hardware Engineering Conference. ever think about that? They need to give their hardware developers something to work on. this seemed like a good build for that. wait for the final to complain. things can and will change. it's amazing how much people have to repeat this all the way through the dev process of any software :no: 585829960[/snapback] The Danztler guy or whoever he is has already been given this information on another thread. He's just trying to ignite a flame war. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

username Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 so can you fit this on CD or does one have to get a modded release? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gelob Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 It was released on a DVD. I dont belive it will boot on those 800mb CDs. Its been tested with VMware and Virtual PC and does not work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albemuth Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 LONGHORN ISN'T FOR END USERS I don't know much about anything, but that made me laugh out loud. That seems to sum up Microsoft's attitude. Although honestly, I was getting a little excited about the new search capabilities. Maybe they'll succeed in spite of themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was just funny. People get so defensive about this OS. I'm looking forward to it, but two years is pretty ridiculous. What they are demonstrating is today's technology. By the time this comes out we'll be behind the curve again. What happened to my jetpacks and rocketcars? I want the future now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
