    Re: Win7 out

    So long ago I ordered mine now I can't even remembered where from! Doh! Gonna have to dig through my emails to check. Here's hoping.

    Of course if it arrives, I'm gonna have to pull my finger out and finishing spec'ing and buy the bits for the HTPC I want to build!

    Yip Yip, just recieved my pre-order from Dixons.
    I did two pre-orders, the one from Dixons is Home premium which I have recieved, I have also pre-ordered the student offer of Windows 7 professional. I really want to install the professional copy but I am itching to install the one I have.

    Amazon appear to be sitting on theirs.
    Society's to blame,
    Or possibly Atari.

    Re: Win7 out

    Wow thats cool, in a way /jealous, although knowing how lazy I am i'll probably still be running the RC until the shutdown starts in March.

    Had preorders come (a day) early before but i'm suprised microsoft didnt keep the retailers on a tight leash.

    Because they're not using royal fail.

    DSGi are, but got permission from MS to ship early to avoid the strike.

    Re: Win7 out

    Just installed it now... and the first thing that greets me is the fact that you can only have one homegroup per network. How can the very first thing I find with my new OS be completely and utterly infuriating?
