Windows Vista Beta
Beta 1, targeted at developers and IT professionals, will be available by August 3rd 2005.

do you think it will be redy,?
 
they're getting better at releasing there os's with less bugs (and less service packs needed when it actually goes live)
 
Yeah, and with W98 they released hundreds of little tiny service packs, about 200 kb a piece, that I'm having fun collecting at the moment ;). As much as I love it, I have to admit, W98 is pretty buggy at times. 2000 showed remarkable improvement, and XP one-upped that, so I'm a bit hopeful for Longhor.....errr...*shudders* vista...:mad:
 
1. Thers nothing wrong with "vista" as a name

2. Of course it will be ready, only because its BETA 1 for christ sakes, it could consist of just a few elements and still qualify for BETA 1. They wouldnt have publically announced its date if they werent confident of its safe arrival for BETA testing.

3.
^^^^^^^ahah lol

was that really worth a whole post for those 7 letters....
 
I'm sure that they did extensive cutomer surveys, and most people like the name "Vista", it's just that I wish they had consulted me about the name.....and only me. Would that be so much to ask? :P

It's really good, though, that they're releasing a beta. That means that they're getting closer to releasing the complete version; which I hope means that prices will come down on 2000 or XP soon. I doubt it will happen, but it's still nice to hope :)

They probably will, not too much though as windows XP will probably still be one of the most mainstream ones out there. 2000 i would expect to see drop in price somewhat.
 
1. Vista is an ok name but Longhorn was much better.

2. I'm not a developer or an IT professional so is there even a chance that i could get a copy of vista beta.
 
Yes, but its not to be talked about on CF.com. And if you need to ask where to get it then you probably shouldnt know...
