Hehehehehe.... just look back at the Beta period of NT5/Win2k for a better feel of what real delays are like!

[Magus]

Win2K was definitely worth the wait, so let's hope history repeats itself.

Don't worry, my friend. They will get there. You will have your shinies soon enough.

I traded the OS XP 64 for a 32 bit version, and the video card has no problems.

I now feel guilty about sending the motherboard back, without testing it myself, but, it's too late.

Guess I can build another box with it.

Could be the Nvidia 3 chipsets, and 64 bit windows are a no no. However,
I needed a 939 pin based motherboard, that has an agp slot for the ATI card, and, gigabyte only offers that with the Nvidia 3 chipsets.

The guys building the machine told me 50% chance of flashing the motherboard working. However, flashing the motherboard has resolved others problems with XP 64 bit. Stayed with the 1.5 bios, and, it's worked fine, with 32 bit windows.

So, now I will have two Nvidia 3 chipset motherboards....

You should have gotten the MSI K8N(?) Neo2 Platinum. Best nforce 3 board.

Yes, even if it's SuperMicro, Socrates. Trust me on this one.

HAHA! Posting for Longhorn build 5048! Thanks to someone pointing me to the torrent and the fact that I happen to have a DVD burner at work. She caused some problems off the start, but I figured out that she just didn't like the monitor. Now she's been running for a couple of days.

I would imagine Beta 1 next month would hit MSDN in relatively short order. Its not worth installing 5048 now as Beta 1 is practically here.

And there's apparently a whole lot more coming in Longhorn. For example: Transactional NTFS, new rendering/compositing engine, stacks (or smart folders, or whatever they call it this week), new TCP/IP stack (IPv6 native), the newly announced RSS platform, Project-M, etc etc
