Did you guys/Gals not get the Multiple Group Policy Preferences Update at the same time?

Update type: Optional

Multiple Group Policy Preferences have been added to the Windows Server 2008 Group Policy Management Console (which are also available through the Remote Server Administration Toolset (RSAT) for Windows Vista SP1). Group Policy Preferences enable information technology professionals to configure, deploy, and manage operating system and application settings they previously were not able to manage using Group Policy. After you install this update, your computer will be able to process the new Group Policy Preference extensions. After you install this item, you may have to restart your computer. This update is provided to you and licensed under the Windows Vista License Terms.

I think the game is kind of cool lol.

Maybe because it is new, not sure

It's been so long since a new Windows Ultimate Extras update that i was beginning to think they'd forgotten about us. :-)
Maybe i'll get bored enough this weekend to try Tinker.

I'm a PC.

Maybe I will try it to and I am just a laptop.

good job that I did not even bother about the ultimate extras when I bought my 64 bit Vista ultimate, as they have rather been a damp squib.

Best and Warm Regards
