Waiting for Windows 7 Official Release ...

[Tews]

I'm not so sure we shouldn't allow discussions about cracks and or alternative ways to to achieve end results.

Before we get into the whole stealing vs copyright infringement argument as you really are not stealing anything. I think this more of a moral decision. This site and no one else can or should make a moral decision for you.

There are legitimate reasons why people do things. I can't go into all of them but situation arise.

So to the point I think cracks and other methods or circumvention should be allowed to be discussed. I do not think we should post links or PM with said applications on this site.
People can use Google and make that moral decision.

The Admins of this site have made their position on this topic abundantly clear and it is non-negotiable. If you wish to discuss topics such as the ones you mention, Im sure there are plenty of other sites out there... feel free to go there...

PS. If you have ever done commercial software development, I guarantee your position would be different.

In support of the admins as well, I am just starting on "development" and after 6 months work, I can what I have achieved to be quite valuable. So I can imagine how valuable millions of man-hours of work really is.

But back on-topic, let's keep the discussion on how you will be implementing Windows 7.

I teach my Number One about earning profit. I do not show him how to stuff paper up the coin return.

That's a bit cryptic Ant

That's a bit cryptic Ant

My Number One, Michael, age 9, purchased his XBox 360 with monies he earned providing services in the neighborhood. One example, he carries trash bins to the street on pickup days. One dollar per house.

When I was a kid, I stuffed paper up the coin returns.

I'll be curious to know how it runs in a Pentium M 1.6 Ghz (1.5 GB) with ATI Mobile 9000 graphic Laptop (T41)

It runs like a dream.

Ditched XP and not regretting it for a moment.

Dell D800 Pentium M 1.7 Ghz, 1,5gb, Nvidia 4200go 64mb running xp drivers v.81.98, 120gb fujitsu 5400rpm.

(no aero translucency, but aero style and alternative transparency hack)

cpu idle 3%

Antman,
Do you, by any chance, drive a Volvo?????

This past January, our Volvo 240 DL died after 20 years of faithful service. The timing belt broke, destroying the valve assemblies.

What's wrong with driving a Volvo, I own a 1990 740 GL stationwagen

Antman said nothing was wrong with driving a volvo...he merely said that his Volvo killed itself when the timing belt broke...

I think he was trying to refer to the questioner, who asked if he by any chance owned a Volvo.

But then still I wonder why the angry faces?

I bit of irony or the occasional smug remark or question can be easily classified as humorous.

Further more, Antman is more than capable to, in his own unique style, wipe the floor with any contender. (note that I didn't say competitor)

I'm happily running RC 7229 and am waiting for the Technet release in 2 days. I'll do a clean install of the RTM at that time.

Road rage.

Usually, Volvo drivers only get Road Mildly Annoyed. We are a peaceful people by nature.

Well, I was a bit perturbed that day.

I did walk away from an accident where an 18-wheeler drove over and through my 1976 El Dorado drop top. Not a scratch. Angels are 25 feet tall and work in pairs.

Isn't it illegal in USA to walk away from an accident?

Don't answer that.

I'm off to bed 4:44 am. This sevenforums addiction is killing me.

Not if you are a Kennedy. Which I am not.

I just put 16385 on - the generic ATI driver eliminated my need to use the overscan feature in CCC. Cool.
