yeah, I recently installed it, beautiful too.
New startup screen, some bugs fixed, boots about 5 seconds faster than 2257 did on my machine. Oh yes and I better add this for those that think stupid about Whistler. I found that a few games that never ran on Windows 2000 now run in Whistler and faster too. NHL 2001 ran 100 % now, no crashing at all. Both SuperBike games (2000 and 2001) ran 100 %. And a couple of olden games ran before that never ran on 2000 before either. I'm not saying they will work on everyone's system as of now, but they do work on my machine and never worked on windows 2000 before.

It seem there is a newer Build 2281 but only for Redmond's special birthday friends

OP
that sucks to see beta 1 slip further, but whistler is coming along nicely for "pre-beta" builds
I got a few screen shots of the 2281 build. Dont ask for them, because the answer is no.
Although i dont have them on my hd, and their deleted off the site.

then whats the point of saying you have some so you can look cool because you have 2281 or because you dont and want to look like your cool and do.

the "what" plan? .plan isn't anything, .NET plan is probably what you meant...
Awww, jdul, you don't know Unix yet? you need to get on that boy.
.plan is a happy little Unix reference.

oh....well ok....but I don't think i'll be using *nix anytime soon, unless I use it for a server at work...other then that, i'll never install a *nix at home..
Damn just a 100% windows boy ? No wonder you have no idea what your talking about. Where do you work with servers ? Probably your drive through window at Burger King.

OP
both of you shut the f.uck up. I don't care if you both 40 or 12, get along or you will both be banned. The users of this board do not need to deal with spam and s.hitty squabbles. I come here to help people and express my ideas on NT and whatever else not so i can read 'my daddy can beat up your daddy' or 'Billy threw sand in my eyes and wrecked by sand castle' grow up both of you. If you have differences of opinion express them politely not in bashing each other.
ok...see...he tells me to shut up....i'm done....no more arguing....
Your rigth ThC 129
The next time I catch anyone calling some eles mom or mother names will be ban good you what I mean.
