All,
Is it worth while downloading 5536? or should I wait for RC1? Anyone know the dates on RC1, will this build be the same build that's going ship for RC1, I am guessing that no SDK will be released for this build. Steve

Hi,
5536 is a "quickie" build (pre-RC1) meant for testers. There's no point to downloading it for most, as RC should be out shortly. There are no dates released, but the impression was given that the time frame for testing 5536 was very short. I have no information on the SDK, though I don't know why there wouldn't be a release for this milestone. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Windows help - www.rickrogers.org "Steve Drake" wrote in message ...

Thanks, my current build 5472 has issues with developing with .NET framework
v3 (WinFX) so its no loss to me, I may just go install it. The last install only took 20 mins, so its no real time loss. "Rick "Nutcase" Rogers" wrote in message ...

I am going to wait for the RC-1 release. I am currently running 5384 without problem, so I am in no hurry.

Special Note: Upgrades from Build 5472 to 5536 are not Supported by
Microsoft, so you will need to Clean Install, Just FYI. "Steve Drake" wrote in message ...

Thanks, good to know, but as most people do, I always clean install, I
