kudos to msft, but damn them for paying a high price for vista. oh well.

RC2 isnt even close to being RTM, imo.

i used the pre-RC1 build and i thought it was stable for the most part. hopefully the fps in games wont get severely butchered...

first it goes to big companies. Then in January to everybody else. The only way I see that regular AT people (students) can get it before it is sent to retail is thru MSDN Academic Alliance.

rc1 = unstable as hell... it wouldn't even restart or shutdown

I think it is reasonably good enough, considering what I've seen before, and on Linux. Best example is Fedora Core. That thing should never been released.

Hopefully I get it at the office on the 8th then.
