Windows Vista RC1 to be released on the 7th of September 2006

RC1 will be a public build, the one that will hopefully be released this week won't be, or at least shouldn't be.
You can use your beta2 code to take that step here:
http://microsoft.order-6.com/RC1_Registration/

Hm, is that only for the people who ordered the beta2 on disk? I'm trying my code (downloaded, activated) and get "We're sorry; this registration code has not been issued."

Presuming that the registration code requested on that site is the product key issued to me by Microsoft I guess I'm screwed. I get the following error message when I enter it:

We're sorry; this registration code has not been issued.
 
So if you aven't already received an e-mail from MS then you haven't been selected to test RC1?
 
I received my email today... :) Although I have already downloaded it but, not installed yet.

The first line of the email says it all... We are pleased to announce the release of Pre-RC1 build 5536.16385! "Music to my ears..."

you can upgrade directly from WinVista Beta 2 which is great news.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(
