Given Windows 7 is officially labeled as Windows version 6.1 to fool some third party software packages. it is just really Vista SE but Vista's disastrous roll out left a bad taste in peoples mouths. M$ needs the Win7 release to be as bug free as possible. They are trying a new release strategy nothing goes to public Beta before they think it is really finished. I downloaded the Beta and will throw it on an old machine to see what it can do there. http://www.businessweek.com/the_thread/techbeat/archives/2008/10/why_does_window.html?campaign_id=rss_blog_tech_beat -- John Duncan Yoyo -------------------------------o) ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
