rseiler Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 For those who've just been "activated" on Vista this afternoon, have you been granted access to the newsgroups yet? It's been a couple hours here and still nothing (well, just the Mail Beta groups which I already had). To previous questions: Yes, Beta 2 will be available for anyone who wants to download it. The bad news is that it's not likely to make it out until January or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjeeeboy Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 This has nothing to do with stealing your sisters junk...and you should have behaved better, maybe you woulda got one... :rofl: 586283341[/snapback] Exactly! Microsoft gives the best betas away to its best beta testers, who behave well and report bugs and give feedback. (Note, I am not a tester of vista) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeremy1 Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 ok so its copyrighted... but so is music and *we* still download it... 586283341[/snapback] *I* don't... I dont see why so many people are so anti-downloading.... just jealous that they weren't able to participate in the beta I guess...586283341[/snapback] Yeah, that's it. Except, I'm actually in the beta, and downloading it right now from Microsoft. I think it's actually the other way around. You guys are all jealous that you didn't get in the beta, so you need to go and warez it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeremy1 Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Yes, Beta 2 will be available for anyone who wants to download it. 586283356[/snapback] Source? I haven't heard that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InternalStorm Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 *I* don't...Yeah, that's it. Except, I'm actually in the beta, and downloading it right now from Microsoft. I think it's actually the other way around. You guys are all jealous that you didn't get in the beta, so you need to go and warez it. 586283361[/snapback] And if you weren't in the beta you would be just like the rest of us ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaMeDtX Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Exactly! Microsoft gives the best betas away to its best beta testers, who behave well and report bugs and give feedback.(Note, I am not a tester of vista) 586283354[/snapback] Ok, but you can't compare you BEHAVING good, to getting picked for the beta. M$ picked people who tested other stuff before, if your a new guy, theirs no luck because he/she has no experiance... So they have to *steal* it, if they wanna test it. I get what your trying to say tho.... But other than copyrights, and the fact that this isnt a public beta, I don't see a problem with someone trying to test it without being in the beta. But don't take my word, thats just my opinion... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harakan Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 On the Connect site, where do we report bugs against IE7 on WinXP? I can't spot a feedback, submit bug or similar link on the connect site, but the beta instructions say to use the Connect site to submit bugs... am I missing something obvious or is the bug-reporting mechanism not yet in place on Connect for this program?

I never got one, so i took it from her.You are telling my this is not stealing. 586283340[/snapback] In this case it would mean your mom has an infinite number of said free gift and stealing it from your mom wouldnt actually be hurting her at all.

Plus, I've seen a couple links that don't work yet, so give them a little more time to get things going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
