I installed 5536 on an HP ZV6000 notebook computer and it was the most
pleasant OS install I've ever done. Everything worked correctly right away
and all necessary drivers were installed without any problems. This is the
way a plug and play OS should be!! Can't believe this is a beta. I had so
many problems with Beta 2 that I gave up on it after a couple of days. Much
better this time around.

Ditto on the great job.

One is finding it a tough job resisting every temptation to go 32 bit

I'll see if i can hold on long enough to something with a 64 bit flavour
appears :[

Unfortunately, there will be no X64 Version of 5536.

I have nothing but disdain for Microsoft right now!!!
I got 3/4 of the way through the download, with ABSOLUTELY NO
PROBLEMS, when SUDDENLY, the SERVER SHUT DOWN with a "File changed"
error.!!!

I about went through the ROOF with FRUSTRATION!!!

WASTED! 2.5GB of MY BANDWIDTH for the month!!! (I only get 17GB
before I'm FAPPED!!!).

NOW I can't EVEN RESTART the Download!!!

Nice going, Microsoft!!!

I guess I will have to wait till they send me the DVD!

I am SO ANGRY right now !!!

Currently, there IS an X64 version right now!!!
But it is CLOSED!
(I guess 100,000 idiots waited SECOND BY SECOND to grab a download,
KNOCKING ME OFF of a download which went EXCELLENTLY all day, and
suddenly STOPPED because they switched in midstride to RC1 rather than
PreRC1!!! I only had another 30-45 minutes to go!!!! What a bunch of
crap!!! I am so damn FRUSTRATED at Microsoft!!!

I hate to tell you this but you had the Wrong Download (You were
Re-Downloading Beta 2), Just FYI.

Still Open), Just FYI.
