just installed the Vista pre-rc1 build 5536 Home edition (went suprisingly
well) and was wondering will this evaluation expire? why has Microsoft
ended the downloading of hotmail accounts? the security features drive me
nuts but getting used to it .-( (left eyeball does not work well) using the
Microsoft Office 2007 beta 2 on my XP Home but should I install it on Vista
and can I use the same download I got for Windows XP home? before I use the
software migration for testing purposes will this migrate software from my
first harddrive containing XP Home to the second one containing Vista. last
one will i be able to run software by going to the c drive and double
clicking a program will it open and run in Vista? thanks

Why don't you download RC-1?
 
Unless you have a pk for Home you cannot activate and will be out of
business in 14 days. While it is possible to install Home by not entering
the pk and then choosing from the menu, the only pk available to CPP is
Ultimate. How did you install Home? Or did you mean to say Ultimate?

All versions of Vista pre release, Beta 2, pre-RC1, and RC1 will timebomb on
May 31, 2007.

You can use the same Office 2007 file on Vista.

You cannot migrate software with Windows Easy Transfer, only files and
settings. The Windows Easy Transfer Companion will migrate applications
when the beta version is released during the Vista release timeframe in
January. It is not yet available even to TechBeta.

Windows Mail does not support the hotmail protocols.
 
this is a good one wow only 14 days and this goes boom with the download I
was able to use it gave me several different Vista OS options from home to
professional my XP home is on C drive and Vista is on my second drive so do
I uninstall this one and choose another ? + this one was from a link at
Microsoft and nowhere else and now how do I check to see when its goes poof?
lastly yes this is a personal home computer I am on disability just like my
old Compaq..
