Hello DJ,

The RC1 page is currently a staging page. The temp ISO contains nothing in
it. The Pre-RC1 page is build 5536 and is limited to 100,000 people. If you
download Pre-RC1 use your beta 2 keys and then see my post titled "sugggestion
for build 5536"

Oh, okay. Thank you, I was just about to start downloading the temp. file. I
already started downloading 5536 and its going no slower than 550kbs. I
started like 25-30 minutes ago and its already at 63%. Well, thanks again!

RC1 will probably be released to TBT around Sept. 7 depending on bug
processing or more accurately the lack of bug processing when they decide to
settle, keep the brass happy, and continue to shove out a very flawed Vista
with major components not fixed.

Prices haven't changed either. They still want $500 for Vista Ultimate
regardless of what they're throwing in a box and slapping logo onto.

As Cuba Gooding goes, so goes MSFT "Show me the money whether we can play or
not" is the Vista slogan.

Hello All!

If what Tom Ziegmann says is true, I'd like to know what I've been
downloading then at 2.2 gigs so far. The file is akamai_temp.iso and
doesn't seem to be empty!

Hello Phillip,

It has been confirmed that its build 5384, the original CPP build. When I
downloaded it last night the ISO showed up empty with ISOBuster and then
I redownloaded today and it is build 5384.
