  Not yet released. This is just a release candidate. Should be pretty stable, more stable than Beta.
  
  But don't know why still limited to only certain people.

  I think it crashed my Vista more likely. My wireless not working liao.
  
  Now must scan scan scan to find my network, press Connect, type in my network name, network key before can connect.
  
  And it forever has limited connection.

  Maybe not. It will kill the laptop even faster. Wipe it once and for all. I think I will wait for Windows 7 instead.

  A few more weeks, very likely.
  
  If anybody notices their internet suddenly very slow, it is most like Automatic Updates at work, downloading it.
  
  I wonder if MS will still ship free Vista SP1 CDs like they do for XP SP2?
  
  I don't mind having a few copies. Heheh
