WindowBlinds 5: RELEASE DATE = Tuesday November 29

It's jsut about here!

Tuesday, November 22, 2005 by Frogboy | Discussion: WinCustomize News

WindowBlinds 5 arrives next Tuesday, November 29th!  Here are the key details:

  • Will support Windows XP (both 32bit and 64bit)
  • Windows 2000, ME, 98 users will have to stay with WindowBlinds 4.6 because the new performance features are only available on XP and those performance features make possible the new per-pixel glass effects.
  • It will be available on its own for $19.95 or as part of Object Desktop for $49.95.
  • Users who purchased WindowBlinds 4 after September get WindowBlinds 5 for free.
  • Other WindowBlinds 4 users will be able to upgrade for $15.  WindowBlinds 4 came out in 2003, so the typical WindowBlinds customer has received over a year and a half of free updates (that's why they have an upgrade path and users who just got WindowBlinds automatically get WindowBlinds 5).
  • A shareware version of WindowBlinds 5 will be available on Tuesday.

Just one note here:

If you look at the screenshots , we have 2 very good WB5 skins, and Be2k5 ( which is NOT a WB 5 skin AFAIK )

Would it not make sense for Stardock to make one killer *this has everything that WB5 can do* type skin to show what WB5 is trully capable of?

A votre service, Hatu! Here in eastern Idaho, we have had 3-4 inches of snow in the last day...our first, also...perfect weather to upgrade from Radeon 7000 to X700 PRO. Just checking, first, to make sure everything's proper. "Measure twice, cut once, grasshopper!" Soon I will have WB5

Any answer from Stardock should be appreciate (i'm not using WFX for transparencies but for "set Windows size and position")

Stardock are in the GMT-5 timezone, and it is unlikely to be released first thing on the 29th, so I would guess you have between 20 & 24 hours before WB5 is released.

GMT -7, here...(drums fingers on keyboard)...I guess this is the opposite of a description of 'life' I heard once:'...like a roll of toilet paper, the nearer the end, the faster it goes'

WIndows Blind 5 supposed to be available today Tuesday 29 Nov, but why is it still only version 4.6 available for download?

Will object desktop users get update? Or fo you have to buy it. I just got object desktop TODAY. Does that make a differnce.
