Not as such, and not on Microsoft's servers. Microsoft has yet to
determine if its security concerns can be met via NNTP. Authorized
testers are given access to a secure site that uses the beta version
of the new edition of the CDO.

These are Alpha versions

that different to me accept for that 3D window manager thing...

Please understand that what has been released so far is not yet
even a beta version. The product won't be released untill 2006 at
the earliest, and perhaps even later.

Nobody knows what changes it may undergo between now and then.
Any opinions on what it will will look like or almost anything
else about it are at this stage nothing more than that--opinions,
guesses, speculation.

Who the hell can say what will happen in the next two years. XP looks nothing like XP at the same stage.

XP looks nothing like XP at the same stage.

That is what I was wondering... if whistler looked like xp... and if XP
actually was a suprise?
I was not following the XP development then....

EG, Longorn will include features that were yanked out of Win ME. They were in the previous version but pulled as not ready, didn't make it for XP, and might for LH.

 

[Kenny]

What are these features? I have never heard of that....

Help and Support (like XP's) was one that was left in ME. But there were many similar things. All pulled out before it went beta.

Most of the programmers are on the net crapping on about it.
Go harrass them
