Stuart, sorry you feel that my information related to me telling people how to download pirate software. I will never encourage the collection of illegal material. The point has been made and we will move on
On other points, I managed to get the Vista build downloaded form the M$ site no problems. I used Free Download Manager just incase it stopped half way but seemed to run through no worries. Installed no bother although i do think it took a couple hours (i did an upgrade - after a full system backup!). Looks nice and works pretty well - although is rather slow still but hey its beta. Don't try and do loads of things at the same time as it does seem to get rather confused. There are a lot of programs that still wont work but have to say 90% of what I use does.
And if you do get it installed press windowskey + Tab (scoll with the mouse)
How cool is that
