This site talks about Vista RC1:
http://download.windowsvista.com/pre...6/download.htm This one talks about Vista Pre-RC1: http://download.windowsvista.com/pre.../download.html ------------------------------------------ Difference is that the first one has a file size of 3.20 gb. IT is also named akami_temp.iso! Can someone confirm this is RC1? |

Hello DJ,
The RC1 page is currently a staging page. The temp ISO contains nothing in it. The Pre-RC1 page is build 5536 and is limited to 100,000 people. If you download Pre-RC1 use your beta 2 keys and then see my post titled "sugggestion for build 5536" Tom Ziegmann Microsoft Certified Professional Windows Vista / Server Longhorn Technical Beta Tester Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 2 Technical Beta Tester This site talks about Vista RC1: http://download.windowsvista.com/pre...6/download.htm This one talks about Vista Pre-RC1: http://download.windowsvista.com/pre.../download.html ------------------------------------------ Difference is that the first one has a file size of 3.20 gb.

RC1 will probably be released to TBT around Sept. 7 depending on bug
processing or more accurately the lack of bug processing when they decide to settle, keep the brass happy, and continue to shove out a very flawed Vista with major components not fixed. Prices haven't changed either. They still want $500 for Vista Ultimate regardless of what they're throwing in a box and slapping logo onto. As Cuba Gooding goes, so goes MSFT "Show me the money whether we can play or not" is the Vista slogan. CH "DJ TECH" wrote in message ... So it means RC1 will be on any day now!

Hello All!
If what Tom Ziegmann says is true, I'd like to know what I've been downloading then at 2.2 gigs so far. The file is akamai_temp.iso and doesn't seem to be empty!
