P.S. My Windsday, April 12th, 2006, Release Date for the Windows Vista Public Preview may be correct after all (even if it turns out to be something earlier than Beta 2, like Build 5308 CTP for example, may become a CPP after all, which would be a complete disaster, however).

Trust me Kevin, it's not. I'm almost 100% sure that Beta 2 will NOT be ready by April. 5308 will not be a CPP (community public preview for those who don't know, a public release basically) because 5342 has been released to technical testers to show a milestone for Vista. It was/is to show that performance has been optimised to some level, and that a lot of the bugs have been fixed. I imagine that Beta 2 will in fact be a late 5380-5340 build number, but technical testers could well expect to see another interim release this month which may or may not be available to MSDN.
Please stop guessing dates - it doesn't help newbie's to Vista, and to be blunt, you're just plain totally wrong :o(

Kevin, apparently you did not see my message about the April CTP Technical testers are expected to receive in the next few weeks, I will repost in this message again. This is from the montly Microsoft BETA Experience Newsletter: Quote: "Welcome to the second edition of the Beta Experience newsletter!
It is April now and the next CTP (Community Tech Preview) of Windows Vista still a few weeks out. If you do not have access to the latest CTP (February CTP, Build 5308) you can still download WinFX and the Windows SDK and start developing WinFX applications on Windows XP. ------------------------------------------ Nevertheless we want to give you an idea what's coming up in terms of user interface changes and improvements. Have a look at the videos demonstrating present versions of Windows Vista below.
But User eXperience is not only about new features. As developers, we need to step back and rethink what is useable and user friendly, instead of just adding flashy effects. The Windows shell team has done a lot of background work and I want to present you an example how we are reworking dialogs in Windows Vista."

Zack: I quit posting any replies to him in the x64 group and haven't missed him since he left. Now I know where he went. I'm waiting for the CPP release to try Vista x64 and still won't reply to him.

I just rated your Post as "NOT USEFULL," in Windows Mail 7.0 (which is included with Windows Vista Build 5308 CTP).
P.S. You might want to think twice before you post something like that again.

No offence but careful Kevin, I am sure several users are using windows mail 7 and may mark your posts as "NOT USEFULL" such as your reply to Dennis Pack. I do not see your reply to his post being usefull as well.

Can someone here ban Kevin from these newsgroups or isn't that possible since these are public newsgroups? I mean I've only been an everyday visitor for 4 days and I'm already tired of his ranting posts he's like a 5 year old asking if he can have something over and over and over again.

Unfortunately no, since everyone is entitled their own opinion, I guess you just accept this as one of the disadvantages of newsgroups, you should be able Block Sender or use ignore conversation from the Message menu. -- -- Andre Windows Connected | http://www.windowsconnected.com Extended64 | http://www.extended64.com Blog | http://www.extended64.com/blogs/andre http://spaces.msn.com/members/adacosta
