No 64 bit RC2 on MSDN?

[Carlo Razzeto]

Anyone know why Microsoft opted not to post a 64 bit build of RC2 on MSDN? I
downloaded and installed the 32bit version, and it seems to work just fine.
However I'm not at all interested in the 32b vesrion. What I want to know
is how the 64 bit RC2 is shaping up. RC1 had various nagging issues which
made me nervous, I'm trying to decide if I should go with vista when it is
release or wait...

The Vista RC2 showed up on the site quite a bit later than the 32 bit
version. It has ended now.

The OP was asking about MSDN, not the public posting.

Speakin' of which, I can't get into MSDN Subscriptions downloads and product
keys after logging on this evening, or even many other subscriptions pages,
like Contact for instance. Tried on two different machines. I figure it's
probably the server(s) but was wondering if anyone else was seeing this,
(hint, hint, <g>).

Carlo;
I just looked and the 64 bit version of Build 5744 is available on MSDN.

Gary;
You seem to be getting more active recently, good to see you.

I just checked and I am able to access my Product keys and downloads.
The Contact Us link works for me as well.

active these days, thanks.

Wow, well finally there it is!! Thanks! It seems odd to me that it was so
much later than the 32b, oh well... Looks like I get to reinstall vista
again!
