| 465861 | 2006-06-24 23:42:00 | Ordered the Vista Beta2 DVD & paid by Visa, due to the high demand that weekend their payment server had a fit and I ended up getting charged 5 times, so I sent off a polite email & got one back after a day or 2, they apologized, refunded the 5 payments & sent me a free DVD by courier. After all the bad things you read about them, it is good to see this sort of service. Well done Microsoft :thumbs: p.s. This should be an interesting thread LOL :D |

| 465864 | 2006-06-25 01:37:00 | You have to pay for Beta software? If you order the dvd of the beta then I think you will have to pay for it, but the beta is a free but a very large download 3 GB. Hope this helps :) |

| 465870 | 2006-06-25 09:06:00 | I downloaded it. Only because xtra reset my cap when they FINNALLY informed that they that hadnt upgraded me to the new (well old now) 3.5mb plan (even though all their ads said they would). So anyway with 2 weeks to download 10gigs I thought what they hell. Was nice to be able to download a 3.something gig file in about 2 1/2 hours though. Can't say it runs to well on my 1.7 celeron and 64 geforce 4 :D Ah well XP is fine for me (with a nicer Vista theme than Vista itself). |
