Avalanche Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 Well mk1990 who cares that you use office beta? That's not the point here ... . The guy helped me greatly, I could test and see the changes whitout installing it and I say a big thank you to him. What's wrong with that? Everyone seem pleased here, it's a great idea from his part and very generous. Hello1024 many thanks again. P.S: Outlook seem broken, it can't load the personal thingy and just quit.

So yes, please fix it. And thanks for doing this. And who cares if this is illegal or not. Unless he's making money out of this, its ok in my book. This saves people from going through the trouble of downloading the public beta, installing it, try it out, and then uninstalling it.

Hello1024 Posted May 25, 2006 Author Share Posted May 25, 2006 (edited) I didn't install minefield - some user did, yes it seems to be a firefox development version. Talking about which, how come a LIMITED XP user account has full read/write access by default to the root of the c: drive even with an NTFS formatted disk?? Also, how come they can control some hardware and disconnect/disable the network adapter? I thought XP's account was so limited it was good for pretty much nothing. Thanks whoever "cleaned up" all the mess made by other users.

TexasFlood Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 I just want to say thank you Hello1024! Great idea and it definately saved me a few hours of downloading! I din't touch a thing but I just opened Word, Excel and Outlook - and was amazed at how much better Office is - I love the menus. Thanks again.

MtnDewCodeRedFreak Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 Maybe you can try the Vista Beta 2 then link us to your virtual PC, Hello1024? Hehe. Ahh I have Office 2007 Beta 2 - full package, including OneNote, FrontPage (I know it's SharePoint Designer now, but I still refer it to the former nomenclature of FrontPage), Project Pro, Visio Pro, and Groove.

morgs Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 Great Idea, I already have Office but its clearly very much appreciated! oh, dont listen to mk1990 its obvious he's a dick, just trolling.

Hello1024 Posted May 26, 2006 Author Share Posted May 26, 2006 I might be able to do vista beta 2, but the mods didn't like it last time, so I'll have to see if they've had a change of heart before I set it up. Anyway - thanks for all the positive comments everyone.

That's smart. :) I remember using eXeem in a Virtual PC for similar reasons.
