Sorry, I'm not downloading it any more. I'm using it

You guys wait till I get cable modem. then I'll post a site. In the mean time, take a visit to #windows2000 and #win2000 at EFNet (IRC duh!)

ask for sites, ask for triggers for sites. That's the way I got it

You can, dare I say it, order it from M$ directly for some *nonimal* fee.

[tish beta2]

Purplehaze, about your sig "mustard is illegal here". Did someone actually say that to you on f.ex. a bar or at mcdonalds, or is ut just bliss?

Curiosity reigns....

What's the RC in Win2K ?? Royal Canadian??

[TarnaC]

RC = Release Candidate

[PurpleHaze]

... that's a very sensitive issue for me, Tish. :|

An answer I would never have guessed, Purplehaze. Having a sig that's connected to low emotions is a bad thing. Unless you think it's something you need to get through with, by time it might not be such a sensitive issue anymore?

Oh well you just cought my attention for a minute.


Jorden, new OS usually go through three Release Candite builds, and since they've reached number two, the OS isn't far from release!

[Jorden]

Ami, just don't let them think they're better than you are... (kiss)

Tish, thanks, but you do know that inbetween Win9x, WinNT and Win2K there's about 1500 bugs?? By installing Win2k you might get 4500 bugs back

Jorden.

[Zypher]

Why anyone would want to actually use it is beyond me.

[tish beta2]

Well... Of those 4500 bugs you brawl about, I've only seen one so far in this build (could just be my machine, sorry for it being ignorant. bad machine, bad!) ¦ )

That bug I saw was the transparency in the explorer-tree icons turning grey.
I would say that has something to do with my 4.21 g400 NT4 drivers

Anyway, it's tens of thousands of different hardware setups, so what can I say, eh?

uh... quote: "(kiss)"
is purplehaze a girl? I thought she was a dude...

Zypher, I use it cus then I can play Need for Speed 2 with my brand new Sidewinder Freestyle Pro USB, and having NFS2 using my CPU #1, while letting Lightwave 3D render anims using CPU #2.

No no BSOD's yet. And no instability either. Yes, NFS2 is still on my "games still played" list.
