| | Re: Christmas came early Being in MSDN didn't have anything to do with it. Being in Connect, submitting at least one bug via the Bug Reporting Utility is a different story.

I could have (and still can) point out various bugs with this OS. You guys that are getting this free licence should have done a better job! ss. |

| | Re: Christmas came early I thought the requirement was bug reports, not "phone calls and emails". There is a bug in your answer.

| | Re: Christmas came early It would depend on which beta testing group(s) he was in. While the Vista TechBeta group required one bug report filed on Connect via MBC, as I understand, emails and/or phone calls I submitted in the TAP beta group also qualify, and there were some testers in the TechBeta group who were also in the TAP group.

| | Re: Christmas came early No bug in my answers. You have trouble you report it. How many errors messages did you report? The bottom line is, I must have reported what they wanted to know. Also, did you use Windows Feedback Panel Software? Many stated here earlier, they thought it was loaded with spyware (LOL). Did you call? Did you email. Using the WFPS, I reported over 150 errors using Vista, and IE 7, Office 2007, Windows Live. I got the 1st beta of Vista and Office 2007, and Windows Live, and started reporting. Excluding all the negative responses you did here, what did you report to MS if any? I have Vista on 4 computers here, 2 on HP, 2 on Dell. Build 5600 is what I am now using on all with no problems. Now I have a question for you "Mr. Vista", if you are not Bill Gates you should change your name here. If you are Bill Gates, thanks for the early Christmas present. Best Holiday Wishes to all at Microsoft, great job guys/gals.
