Microsoft Opens Vista Test To Everyone
Please please please test our OS!
Thursday, September 14, 2006 by Zoomba | Discussion: WinCustomize News
Previously, Windows Vista RC1 was only available to either those in one of the Microsoft tech communities or those who had tested a previous build through the Customer Preview Program, which stopped accepting testers some weeks ago. Starting today however, sign-ups for the Customer Preview Program and testing for RC1 have reopened to the public. The goal is to reach 5 million testers prior to RTM.
So if you missed out previously and want a shot at a Vista RC1 DVD and key, go sign-up!

Given your propensity to easily manage BSOD's on a regular basis (a self attributed ability), it would seem Vista's not the only one....apparently XP gets temperamental with you as well.
Sorry, Jafo, but an OS has not yet been created for the race marshall who loves getting under the bonnets of HRT touring cars to ogle/drool over the superior V8's and fuel injectors he'd love to have under his own hood.

Jafo,
Send an e-mail with your mailing address (again;I deleted the one from VistaB2) if you want.
Happy to send RC1 32-bit version (huge improvement over B2).
I can now say that I will purchase when released.
Note - disabling UAC in msconfig and setting the warning icon to 'hide' is an easy fix to the only annoyance (other than Adobe not indicating whether they will offer an update/patch to support the Vista platform for CS2
).
My notebook (Intel Pentium M - 760 Dothan single core) is running quite well - even with the MS reporting processes running in the background. The Office 2007 beta2 TC is also doing just fine.
