believe wat you want
now try to find 1 page on the net giving info on 42xx you cant because info hasnt been relesed yet..apart from mine where did that 42xx info come from theres only one possible place microsoft |
Before you question my background ask yoiurself where this came from
IF NO INFO ON IT IS AVABLE ON THE NET search for LONGHORN BUILDwildcardwildcard on the net see what resusults you get NONE Review for the Preliminary Release of Microsoft® Windows® Code Name "Longhorn" Build 4082-42xx So its been a long wait but i can finaly share with you the new fetures etc. Again this is based on my REAL hands on experince with the builds. So no spin just the facts. First some problems printscreen isnt working but the gui hasnt chanded at all since 4074\4082 avalon shots.So im having trouble getting my screenshots ill find an app to bypass this soon. Instalation The same install as 4074\4082 its a simple 3 step process.As with you can install in windows xp (it takes 12 min) reboot to be greeted with your new desktop. Youll have the option to change whats installed,in reality there are 2 operating systems installed "Media center" and "Longhorn" ,More on that later. What is strange is the bootable dvd install you have new options when you insert the dvd and boot from it your greeted with a boot screen like the xp one but....thers no windows installed yet This is windows pe preinstallation enviornment when it loads you get the fimiler welcome screen from the dvd install but now there are some new options install windows ..normal 12 min install proform aditional tasks..normal but click here proform aditional tasks\scan proform aditional tasks\repair proform aditional tasks\boot scan my experience with faith.zip was a precursor to this its a bootable virus scrubber. repair this is a tool to fix serios problems like missing or currupted files in the os itll fix the ones needed by the os before the login screen boot Yep you guessed it its a Knoppix like experience a striped down os like win 2000 that boots from the dvd. itll let you edit files copy them etc no media player or paint etc New fetures since build 4074\4082 well apart from the dvd installer theres a bootable media center os intagrated virus scanning\removal,New Internet Explorer (a mozzie killer), Media Player 10 is replaced,Better burning support,A good firewall,NO BALOONS, New avalon Desktop,Layred Browsing,A simpletron mode,Better Voice control And a cupple of others Naff Changes Again My Computer is now Computer new wallpaper(for crap pcs who cant use avalon desktops) Avalon Fundimental Changes A cuple of new things. 1 Windows can no be moved in and out in layers ie click on the titlebar move the scrollwhell in the window moves back a layer. 2 the icon layout thas changed, thumbnails are on by default and aranged in layers Desktop Ive talked about a 3d desktop before but its here THE "WALLPAPER" IS A 3D BACKGROUNDthere are 2 different ones a tree in a field and some moterway in america Both are like a scene from a film. the tree moves in the wind ITS IN 3D day and night are synched with your desktop the sun comes up and it gets brighter The wether changes from day to day. The same with the moterway in the desert Cars and stuff go up and down it,the light as the sun comes up shines onto the sidebar Weird stuff but our 3d os is here. Now ill be the first person to say this is useless but its kind of like staring out the window i think its a nice tuch espicly when listeng to "media player" it gives you something to look at. Give me a New York one please... Layered Browsing This is a simple one before i explain dont try to compair this to a folder in xp os it work there open up a folder and you get a list of icons and a scroll bar here the scroll bar is kaput This is used in internet explorer aswell now turn on thumbnails, in longhorn these are panes of glass suspended in a folder in layers move the wheel in on your mouse and the "camra" flys in one layer you see the next layer of files... Simple and incredibly cool Ghost Windows Open up computer with the thumbnails on.now if your using media player and you maximise computer media player "flys" a layer behind your files move the camra in to use it and out ahain to view your files.This can be done with any .exe by clicking on the titlebar with the scrollwheel button. New Applications Media center This is a replacement for media player 10 basicly its the media center edition of xp but its bootable. when you select it at the boot menu it loads allmost instintly and your greeted with the dvd installers background pic.and the same colordepth\res as when you instyall xp (that screen where it asks for the cd key) there are 5 objects my music -intagrated music player my video -intagrated movie player my pictures -intagrated picture viewer play dvd -intagrated dvd player import -import files from a cd\dvd\memcard etc (wizard) Functions are the same as media player 10 play dvd,wma,avi sadly there is no tv recording mode. In the os its a fullscreen app with ccontrols intagrated into the sidebar giving you an ipod style view of whats playing the cd pic etc its very easy to use and is built into the os ie it loads as part of the os Internet explorer Well its a fox killer ive allready said before it could stop all of those search bar trogens where mozzie gets infected but now it has layred browsing. to explain if you have two windows open in fox you can tab through them in ie they are aranged on the Z axis in layers click your mos wheel in or click on the windows icon and the camra moves in through the web page to show the next page. Its got a dap style download manager with pause resume multiple connections etc its got an alarming black list of trogen links. it has a built in cleaner to remove trogens like hijack this. it seems to be nearly imune to trogens after 3 minuter on a rom site i usualy have xxx toolbar,cool web search etc but ive been there yesterday and the worst i got was a trogen error,os not supported! Microsofts new search engine google lovers beware microsofts finaly come up with a new idea. on the bar youll see the search tile if you click on it and if you type longhorn. you get a transperent window eith your rusults.no graphics to download just rusults and its fast realy fast google seems to be in some serious trouble here... Control Center like Xteq Systems X-Setup this gives you hunderds of options in a catogry view that are not avable in the control pannel like tweaks and hacks for ie and other apps thats all the New fetures since build 4074\4082 |
cud u translate dat post 2 english plz? :D

This is really a bit sad, isn't it... :(

What part?
The crappy grammar? That someone is trying to evangelize the virtues of Windows on a Linux board, where people are trying to get AWAY from Windows? That a wannabe is trying to convince former Microserfs (I know I'm not the only former Microserf on this board) that M$ pays beta testers? Or, the whole thread in general? This is a Linux board. While choosing the right tool for a job is perfectly valid so of course sometimes Windows will be the right choice for a purpose, and in others Linux may be the best choice, and in yet other situations MacOS//OS/x will be the right choice - but proselytizing Windows is more appropriate on oh, say, alt.lamer.microsoft.fanboys.die.die.die than it is on linuxquestions.org. Has x-32b contributed to any legitimate threads on the board? Has he participated in any Linux-related topics? Or, has he only posted Microsoft FUD he has swallowed hook, line, and sinker, and trying to play up his role as a lowly beta tester as being something larger than what it is? x-32b, everyone sees through you and there are plenty of Windows advocate discussion boards available for you to post your Longhorn "reviews" on. I think I speak for nearly every Linux user on here when I say: We don't care about longhorn. It's also worth noting that I've had my hands on Longhorn for nearly three years now as an MSDN Universal subscriber - and what's more, I haven't had to sign any NDA for it. Anyone who subscribes to MSDN Universal gets all of the betas and sometimes alpha builds of operating systems, development environments, application servers, and other prerelease items. You, as a beta tester, have signed an NDA are violating your NDA in multiple ways and can actually be taken to court by M$ for violating that. Granted, being a minor it's unlikely you'd be prosecuted - your parents would be likely to be liable for civil damages, however. You know, I'm half-tempted to drop a line with the URL to this thread to M$ via the M$ corporate web site - instead I'll just IM one of my Microserf friends who is on the Visual Studio team instead, and he could directly submit the URL to his superiors if he could feel bothered. Why? Because you're just begging to be prosecuted for violating your NDA in such an annoying way on a board where we just plain don't care about Windows. It's likely he couldn't be bothered, but who knows, if he's in a lull at work and is bored enough that pursuing it might provide a few minutes' amusement he may very well forward the URL on. |
All of that... The poor kid can hardly put two words together.

Okay, that took me a while to work out... But it still makes more sence than some of the stuff he's been saying...

well, it seems to me that microsoft is really trying to make a very nice-looking world. i guess it´s nice to see that kind of effects in a shop when you buy a new mouse. "and shall we put 1 Longhorn while at it, sir?"
i just don´t know how fast it is to use compared to a good 2d-desktop. hopefully as fast, so that people can choose what they want. the thing that bothers me the most is that it definetly needs a new computer to work with, old stuff won´t do. well, i am a very happy mac-user right now. i just got gnome compiled via fink and i have now command-option-a switch that switches between full screen gnome and aqua instantly. it is definetly faster than dual-booting :) and you can run it in rootless mode, too. but i prefer 2 desktops, since os x doesn´t have virtual desktops by default. i bet longhorn doesn´t run gnome or kde :) |
He is definately lieing.
The only way you can alpha test for microsoft is to be a member of MSDN, or go to a conference (winhec for example). Where they make you sign a no talk contract. Either A. you didn't read the contract B. you got it from a p2p program and then call yourself a beta tester. If you signed that contract microsoft can take legal action against you for this, and if you didn't, then you got it illegally from a p2p network. |
I have informed the moderators at LinuxQuestions about the dubious nature of x-32b's posts here at LQ. It has been found that x-32b has also been posting similar kind of "reviews" in other boards as well. He has also been cut-copy-pasting the same "reviews" over and over again not only here at LQ, but at other places as well.
As of now, may I suggest that this thread best be ignored for now, until it gets locked or until a moderator intervenes? Also I am very, very suspicious about how x-32b obtained his copy of Longhorn "beta". |

If M$ is incorporating LookingGlass features in Longhorn, they either have to PAY license fees for it, or they will end up in court fighting SUN's patents. It doesn't matter if it's clean room or not. Maybe under Copyright law it would, but not under patent law. What matters is who was first,... SUN. I've seen demos of LookingGlass (which by the way is NOT an OS, it's a GUI layer on top of a window manager, on top of an OS. So, old apps will be able to use it as well as new ones). Sun has patented the LookingGlass Technology. It is based on Java 3D, and will be available for Linux and Solaris using X-windows as the video transport layer. |

Why in the world do people think they need this kind of thing? What a freaking waste! Back in the day, I seem to remember Mac being the ones who put form over function the most, but it sounds like MS has definitely surpassed them in that. Thanks, but I'll stick to Fedora with the ratpoison WM. Can't get a much simpler interface than that. One thing you've definitely taught me, is that I will never switch back to Windows for the rest of my life. Thank you for your valuable info. |

And I've also asked for this thread title to be changed. It has nothing to do with Linux vs. Longhorn, rather your long rant and spill of the new features of Longhorn I'm sure 99% of the members here don't care about anyways. Remember, your on a Linux forum, preaching Microsoft features to Linux users doesn't go very far, especially with your grammar and spelling mistakes, your only making most of them laugh at you. And links to screenshots doesn't tell anyone anything. 95% of the machines I deal with don't even have a GUI, at home or work. Showing pretty pictures of a new OS is pointless and doesn't prove anything, especially on a Linux forum. Regards. |

You know when I first used multiple desktops (well, at least switchable desktops)? Windows 3.1 with PCTools. Next was slack 3 and fvwm... And after all this time MS still can't do it right... Sheesh. You are such a noob... |
man this x32, guy sounds like an asshole.
Well Linux still outweighs any windows os, I mean look back at win 98 and 2000 those themes were just plain ugly, where you got from linux your nice colourful KDE/GTK Themes. |

Hahahaha Ive Just read the kids orginal article, what a newb, why advertise windows on a serious linux site you moron? Like anyones gonna give a shit. Are you retarded?

Yeah, it's the only way I can use XP... I have nvidia cards and the nvidia driver has a multiple desktop setup in nview... It takes a while to get the setup right, and I can hardly remember HOW to do it, and my son did his a LOT better with little icons in his task bar... I use the nvidia switching bar along the top of the screen but have it 50% transparent so it doesn't stand out so bad...
XP has a build in desktop switching tool, but it's a dog to use... With the nvidia switch bar it's a lot more like linux... and it has a window shader (reduce window to just the title bar) too, which is cool... |

What a prick, all those windoze users believed him (at first), you can install something called a longhorn theme manager v2.0 from warez sites, thats how hes got it looking like longhorn, i did it once.

You fucking idiot, they are themes not the real thing, and the builds? They are using a basic enhanced xp kernel. What a dumbass.
Dont take enhanced the wrong way, basically two more lines of code. |
Quote:
You can repet all you want, I've seen more than enough. |
Yeah Like I said, he probably got off a warez site, I know some good ones and I seen it before and once installed it, it does nothing to your system at all. Just installs a couple of themes and that annoying side bar.

Mess with the best? Fuck ya Linux is the best bitch.
That is exactly what you are using, it's fake fake fucking fake, it's a pretend alpha version of longhorn I seen the website dipshit I know. As for the screenshots, well for e.g the "fatman" version is ovbiously been edited either more cheaply in photoshop or somekind of runtime editor, ??? you could of done the exact same thing with the other screenshot, and who says it will look like windows xp setup? Awnser that bitch. |

This file contains links to important information about this release of "Longhorn," as well as information you should read before you install "Longhorn." Important This limited technical release expires 180 days after it is installed. The information in this Readme applies to the following products: For x86-based systems Preliminary Release of Microsoft Windows Code Name "Longhorn" For Itanium-based systems Preliminary Release of Microsoft Windows Code Name "Longhorn" for Itanium-based Systems For 64-bit extended systems Preliminary Release of Microsoft Windows Code Name "Longhorn" for 64-Bit Extended Systems For information that you should read before you install this product, see: Read before you install this product For detailed instructions about how to install this product, see: Setup For information that you should read after you install this product, see the following article on the Microsoft Knowledge Base: Article 839970, "Release notes for the preliminary release of Microsoft Windows Code Name "Longhorn"—distributed at the Windows Hardware Engineering Conference, May 2004" © 2004 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved. Read before you install this product Back to Top -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- File systems: offline files If you have used your current operating system to store any information in the cache, be sure to write the information in the cache back to the server before you install Windows Code Name "Longhorn." The cache is not maintained during a "Longhorn" installation, even if you use the offline-files feature. Important information about Setup This information about Setup applies only to this release of Windows Code Name "Longhorn." You should install "Longhorn" only on a clean partition or hard disk and only in a test environment. This version of "Longhorn" is not intended for use in a production environment. You can start a "clean installation" of "Longhorn" from the installation medium while you are running Microsoft Windows 2000, Microsoft Windows XP, or a Microsoft Windows Server™ 2003 family operating system. If you want to perform a clean installation, be sure to format the target partition before you start the installation. If you have no operating system installed, or you are running an operating system other than Windows 2000, Windows XP, or a Windows Server 2003 family operating system, start the computer from the installation medium and perform a clean installation. If you want to use this method, and you have an existing operating system, you can format the partition during Setup. We recommend that you start the computer from the Windows Code Name "Longhorn" installation medium, click Clean installation, format the target partition, and then install "Longhorn." Important When you format a partition, all data contained on the partition is deleted. You cannot upgrade your computer to "Longhorn"; you can only perform a clean installation. If you want to use the "Longhorn" Contacts feature, during the installation, you must install "Longhorn" on an NTFS file system partition or disk drive. Although you cannot choose a format other than NTFS during the installation, if you install "Longhorn" on a drive or partition that was previously formatted as a FAT file system, you must reformat the drive to NTFS if you want to use Contacts. You cannot install "Longhorn" while you are running MS-DOS. Setup installs "Longhorn" in the Windows directory only. You are not given the option to specify the directory name where "Longhorn" is installed. You can install "Longhorn" onto a partition or drive that meets the following criteria: It has a minimum of 3 gigabytes (GB) of free space. It has a driver that has been provided by Microsoft or another source. (In the latter case, see Installing "Longhorn" if Microsoft does not currently provide a driver for your hard-disk controller.) It is not a hidden partition or reserved for use by your OEM. It is not a dynamic disk. By default, the installation partition is assigned the drive letter C: when the "Longhorn" installation starts. If you want to specify a different drive letter, you can use an unattended installation with the following parameter (where X: is the drive you want to specify): assign = X: The user interface for "Longhorn" Setup does not currently support joining a domain. If you want to join a domain, you can do one of the following: Install "Longhorn" using Unattend.xml. (You can find Unattend.xml in the /docs folder of your "Longhorn" installation medium.) -or- Join the domain just as you would join a domain for Windows XP after Setup has completed. To do this, open Control Panel, click User Accounts, and then click Start the Network Identification Wizard. To install "Longhorn" on the same hard disk as Windows XP, you must do the following: Before you install "Longhorn," install Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 1 (SP1) or later or Windows XP Home Edition with SP1 or later. Install "Longhorn" on a partition that is separate from the partition on which Windows XP is installed. If you want to run "Longhorn" as part of a dual-boot system, you can do so only on a computer that is running either Windows XP Professional or Windows XP Home Edition. Installing "Longhorn" if Microsoft does not currently provide a driver for your hard-disk controller This note applies if Microsoft does not currently provide a driver for your hard-disk controller, and you must therefore use a driver supplied by the storage device manufacturer. Before you install "Longhorn," you must use Windows Preinstallation Environment (Windows PE) to install the driver that the manufacturer has supplied. This is explained in the following procedure. To install "Longhorn" if Microsoft does not currently provide a driver for your hard-disk controller When you are prompted to install a non-Microsoft SCSI driver or redundant array of independent disks (RAID) driver, press F6. Insert the floppy disk provided by the storage device manufacturer. Setup then starts Windows Preinstallation Environment (Windows PE). After Windows PE starts, if you installed one of the drivers described in Step 1, press F6 again when you are prompted to do so. Setup searches for and installs drivers from the device-driver floppy disk. After Step 5 is completed, Setup will finish installing "Longhorn." Automatic Updates The Automatic Updates feature, which helps keep your computer current with critical updates, is not included in this version of Windows Code Name "Longhorn." To help keep your computer secure, you can obtain the latest updates for this version of Windows from the Microsoft Download Center. Windows File Protection Windows File Protection has been disabled for this preliminary release of "Longhorn." The SfcGetNextProtectedFile and SfcIsFileProtected application programming interfaces (APIs) are also not supported in this preliminary release. As a result, Windows File Protection cannot help protect the critical Windows system files. For additional information about Windows File Protection, see article 22193, "Description of the Windows File Protection Feature," on the Microsoft Knowledge Base. . |

You may also need to reactivate the Software if you modify your computer hardware or alter the Software. There are technological measures in this Software that are designed to prevent unlicensed use of the Software. You agree that Microsoft may use those measures. If you are not using a licensed copy of the Software, you are not allowed to install the Software or, to the extent any are offered, future Software updates. 1.4 System Activation. You acknowledge and understand that the Software contains components requiring the periodic use of a Microsoft Internet-based service. Installation and use of this service is called System Activation for Windows Rights Management ("System Activation"). During System Activation, your computer will be connected automatically via the Internet or via an entity's proxy server in order to create and save to your computer certain system components ("Component[s]") for your particular computer. The Component is used by the Windows Rights Management ("RM") portion of the Software to allow you to access information that is protected by the RM features of the Software. 1.5 Windows Rights Management ("RM"). Creators of information such as Web content, e-mail messages, and documents ("Information") may use this RM technology to specify permitted uses of their Information. Applications, such as Web Services, e-mail messaging, and word processing, may use RM to publish and/or consume Information ("RM-Enabled Applications"). If an RM-Enabled Application has been compromised, the RM features of that application, and access to RM-protected Information created for use with that application, may be disabled; however, you will still have the ability to use that application to access Information that has not been protected using RM technology. In order to re-enable the compromised Application andccess RM-protected Information, you may need to upgrade the RM components of the Software, repeat System Activation, and/or upgrade the compromised RM-Enabled Application. If an upgrade to the RM components or a repeat of System Activation is required, Microsoft will ask for your consent before such upgrade or activation. 1.6 Windows Rights Management Services ("RMS"). Windows Rights Management Services software ("RMS") is a service of Windows Server 2003 which is designed to work in conjunction with RM-enabled Applications and RM components of the Software to let users specify permitted uses of their Information. This Agreement does not grant you any use rights to Windows Server 2003. You must obtain a validly licensed copy of Windows Server 2003 to use the RM features of the Software with Windows Server 2003 RMS. 1.7 Reservation of Rights. Microsoft and its suppliers shall retain title and all ownership rights to the Software, and this Agreement shall not be construed in any manner as transferring any rights of ownership to the Software or to the features or information therein. Microsoft reserves all rights not expressly granted to you in this Agreement. This Agreement shall not be construed in any manner as transferring any rights of ownership or license to the Software or to the features or information therein, except as specifically stated herein. This Agreement does not grant you any rights to use the trademarks or trade names "Microsoft", "Windows", "WinFX" or any other trademarks, service marks or logos belonging to Microsoft. You agree to take reasonable measures to comply with Microsoft's trademark guidelines when referencing the Software in your materials. Microsoft's trademark guidelines may be found at http://www.microsoft.com/mscorp/ip/t.../gnlguide.asp. 2. TERM OF AGREEMENT. YOUR RIGHT TO USE THE SOFTWARE SHALL BE EFFECTIVE FROM THE DATE YOU FIRST INSTALL THE SOFTWARE ON ANY WORKSTATION COMPUTER FOR A PERIOD OF ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY (180) DAYS. THE SOFTWARE IS TIME SENSITIVE AND WILL NOT FUNCTION UPON EXPIRATION OF THE 180 DAY PERIOD. NOTICE OF EXPIRATION WILL NOT ACTIVELY BE GIVEN, SO YOU NEED TO PLAN FOR THE EXPIRATION DATE AND MAKE A COPY OF AND REMOVE IMPORTANT DATA BEFORE EXPIRATION. IF YOU DESIRE TO USE THE SOFTWARE AFTER THIS AGREEMENT HAS EXPIRED, YOU WILL NEED TO ACQUIRE A VALIDLY LICENSED COPY OF A SUBSEQUENT PRE-RELEASE VERSION OF THE SOFTWARE OR THE COMMERCIAL RELEASE VERSION OF THE SOFTWARE. Without prejudice to any other rights, Microsoft may terminate this Agreement if you fail to abide by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Upon termination of this Agreement, you shall cease use of the Software, and if so requested, promptly return to Microsoft, or certify destruction of, all full or partial copies of the Software provided by Microsoft. The following sections shall survive termination or expiration of this Agreement: Reservation of Rights; Feedback; Disclaimer of Warranties; Exclusion of Incidental, Consequential and Certain Other Damages; Governing Law/Jurisdiction/Attorneys' Fees; Limitation of Liability and Remedies; U.S. Government Rights; Applicable Law; and Entire Agreement, Severability. 3. AUTOMATIC INTERNET-BASED SERVICES. The Software features described below are enabled by default to connect via the Internet to Microsoft computer systems automatically, without separate notice to you. You consent to the operation of these features, unless you choose to switch them off or not use them. Microsoft does not collect any information that will be used to identify you or contact you. For more information about these features, please see the privacy statement at: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/longhorn/privacy.mspx. 3.1 Windows Update Features. If you connect a hardware device to your Workstation Computer, it may not have the drivers needed to communicate with that hardware. The Software's update feature can obtain the correct drivers from Microsoft and install them on your device. You can switch this update feature off. 3.2 Web Content Features. Under the Software's default configuration, if you are connected to the Internet, several features of the Software are enabled by default to retrieve content from Microsoft computer systems and display it to you. When you activate such a feature, it uses standard Internet protocols, which transmit the type of operating system, browser and language code of your Workstation Computer to the Microsoft computer system so that the content can be viewed properly from your Workstation Computer. These features only operate when you activate them, and you may choose to switch them off or not use them. Examples of these features include Windows Catalog, Search Assistant, and the Headlines and Search features of Help and Support Center. 3.3 Digital Certificates. The Software uses digital certificates based on the x.509 standard. These digital certificates confirm the identity of Internet users sending x.509 standard encrypted information. The Software retrieves certificates and updates certificate revocation lists. These security features operate only when you use the Internet. 3.4 Auto Root Update. The Auto Root Update feature updates the list of trusted certificate authorities. You can switch off the Auto Root Update feature. 3.5 Windows Media Player. Some features of Windows Media Player automatically contact Microsoft computer systems if you use Windows Media Player or specific features of it: features that (A) check for new codecs if your Workstation Computer does not have the correct ones for content you attempt to play (this feature may be switched off), and (B) check for new versions of Windows Media Player (this feature will operate only when you are using Windows Media Player). 3.6 Windows Media Digital Rights Management. Content providers are using the digital rights management technology for Windows Media contained in this Software ("WM-DRM") to protect the integrity of their content ("Secure Content") so that their intellectual property, including copyright, in such content is not misappropriated. Portions of this Software and third party applications such as media players use WM-DRM to play Secure Content ("WM-DRM Software"). If the WM-DRM Software's security has been compromised, owners of Secure Content ("Secure Content Owners") may request that Microsoft revoke the WM-DRM Software's right to copy, display and/or play Secure Content. Revocation does not alter the WM-DRM Software's ability to play unprotected content. A list of revoked WM-DRM Software is sent to your Workstation Computer whenever you download a license for Secure Content from the Internet. Microsoft may, in conjunction with such license, also download revocation lists onto your Workstation Computer on behalf of Secure Content Owners. Secure Content Owners may also require you to upgrade some of the WM-DRM components in this Software ("WM-DRM Upgrades") before accessing their content. When you attempt to play such content, WM-DRM Software built by Microsoft will notify you that a WM-DRM Upgrade is required and then ask for your consent before the WM-DRM Upgrade is downloaded. WM-DRM Software built by third parties may do the same. If you decline the upgrade, you will not be able to access content that requires the WM-DRM Upgrade; however, you will still be able to access unprotected content and Secure Content that does not require the upgrade. WM-DRM features that access the Internet, such as acquiring new licenses and/or performing a required WM-DRM Upgrade, can be switched off. When these features are switched off, you will still be able to play Secure Content if you have a valid license for such content already stored on your Workstation Computer. 4. SOFTWARE MAINTENANCE/UPDATES. Microsoft is not obligated to provide maintenance, technical support or updates to you for the Software provided pursuant to this Agreement. However, Microsoft may, in its sole discretion, provide further pre-release versions, technical support, updates and/or supplements of the Software, add-on components, or Internet-based services components, and/or related information ("Updates") to you hereunder in which case such Updates shall also be deemed to be included in the "Software" and therefore governed by this Agreement, unless other terms of use are provided by Microsoft with such Updates. In no event shall Microsoft be obligated to provide you, free of charge, a copy of the commercial release version of the Software in connection with your participation in the testing program. Microsoft is not obligated to make the Software commercially available. Microsoft reserves the right to discontinue any Internet-based services provided to you or made available to you through the use of the Software. Features supported on 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the Software, including some features mentioned in this Agreement, may not be identical or available in both versions; please refer to Software documentation for a list of specific features included with each version. 5. LIMITATION ON REVERSE ENGINEERING, DECOMPILATION, AND DISASSEMBLY. You may not reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble any portion of the Software, except and only to the extent that such activity is expressly permitted by applicable law notwithstanding this limitation. Further, with respect to RM contained within the Software you may not otherwise seek to discover the formats or protocols of RM. 6. LINKS TO THIRD PARTY SITES. You may link to third party sites through the use of the Software. The third party sites are not under the control of Microsoft, and Microsoft is not responsible for the contents of any third party sites, any links contained in third party sites, or any changes or updates to third party sites. Microsoft is not responsible for webcasting or any other form of transmission received from any third party sites.

EXCLUSION OF INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL AND CERTAIN OTHER DAMAGES. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL MICROSOFT OR ITS SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, INDIRECT, OR CONSEQUENTIAL OR OTHER DAMAGES WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS OR CONFIDENTIAL OR OTHER INFORMATION, FOR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, FOR PERSONAL INJURY, FOR LOSS OF PRIVACY, FOR FAILURE TO MEET ANY DUTY INCLUDING OF GOOD FAITH OR OF REASONABLE CARE, FOR NEGLIGENCE, AND FOR ANY OTHER PECUNIARY OR OTHER LOSS WHATSOEVER) ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE, THE PROVISION OR FAILURE TO PROVIDE SUPPORT OR OTHER SERVICES, INFORMATION, SOFTWARE, AND RELATED CONTENT THROUGH THE SOFTWARE OR OTHERWISE ARISING OUT OF THE USE OF THE SOFTWARE, OR OTHERWISE UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT, EVEN IN THE EVENT OF THE FAULT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), MISREPRESENTATION, STRICT LIABILITY, BREACH OF CONTRACT OR BREACH OF WARRANTY OF MICROSOFT OR ANY SUPPLIER, AND EVEN IF MICROSOFT OR ANY SUPPLIER HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

GOVERNING LAW/JURISDICTION/ATTORNEYS' FEES. This Agreement shall be construed and controlled by the laws of the State of Washington, and you consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the federal courts sitting in King County, Washington, unless no federal jurisdiction exists, in which case you consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the Superior Court of King County, Washington.

x-32b, why does a paid-big-cash-by-Microsoft need to download leaked builds off of a warez site?
Here's a hint for those who aren't familiar with Windows beta programs: You receive a login account very similar to that of MSDN subscribers where you are given access to articles and ISO images of the product. Which builds you are given access to is based on various factors (e.g., are you just a beta tester, are you a large OEM, are you a M$ partner, external support or training house, etc. not to mention how active are you in submitting feedback and what issues have you required). You ar5e not directed to warez sites to download the ISO images. Not only that, the install key is licensed to you, is non-transferrable (remember, first right of sale belongs to Microsoft since you did not buy the license, it is lent to you during the testing period), and is easily traced thanks to Activation. |
