I heard about this OS on NPR this morning.

I don't think is much to "know" about this OS on P4s ... or any computers for that matter.

It will run on P4s (maybe in 2006). :-)

98% of the population is asleep. The other 2% are staring around in complete amazement, abject terror, or both.

One reason Microsoft is sending the beta version out now is so that hardware and software manufacturers will be ready with drivers and software to run on the new OS when they launch it in 2006.

64 bit WINXP is available currently but a big problem is finding drivers for this new OS.

Vista is supposed to be RTMed toward the end of 2006 4th Quarter but most likely in the early 2007. What the heck its so way out why bother wasting our time of what may turn out to be complete different than we thought?
