brainsoft 0 Posted October 25, 2000 There are versions mentioned in numerous thread titles, but I unfortunately don't have time to read through them all. The last version I used was 2250 which was very buggy, but showed great promise! I see reference to 2276 and 2267 and other numbers... Which ones are real and what's the newest? ------------------ brainsoft, Xi Base & JJR512.com Co-Administrator.

brainsoft 0 Posted October 25, 2000 I take it most of you guys have gotten Whistler through other means then? How many of you have legal copys of pre-release versions of this upcoming MS OS? I know I didn't get build 2250 from MS, that's for sure. Please don't post anything that'll close this thread though (aka, W4r3Z). Feel free to IM me on ICQ though, or email if you have some info that you may not be comfortable posting. Time to watch Heavy Metal now, later. ------------------ brainsoft, Xi Base & JJR512.com Co-Administrator.

J_Pro 0 Posted October 25, 2000 O.k. Now I know the damn thing says codename whistler. But where the hell does it say personal/professional. Somebody may try to make me believe that there are always 2 simultaineous builds but I won't. I might believe it near release time but not during developement. Similar to how there are actually 3 versions of WinME. Don't make me throw the bull**** flag. : Share this post Link to post
Four and Twenty 0 Posted October 26, 2000 well from my experience there are at least 2 builds I have had pro 2250 and personal 2257 there are also various server flavors of whistler out there somewhere ------------------ My System Dell Demension XPS T500 Dual Boot Windows 2000 Pro 2195 Windows Millennium Final PIII @ 500 Mhz (with after market heatsink and dual fan) 256 Megs Ram TNT2 Ultra Graphics Card Matrox Millennium PCI (for second monitor) 3Com 10/100 Ethernet Card 3Com 56k Modem 12.6 Gig IBM HD 40X CD Rom Drive 100 Mb Zip Drive MS Explorer Mouse MS Natural Keyboard Pro Share this post Link to post
J_Pro 0 Posted November 1, 2000 Would that be 2296 Pro or 2296 consumer? Or 2296 server, advanced server or datacenter server? Fries with that? Super sized or regular? Cream or Sugar? I'm not making fun of you guys (except jdulmage)but I would be curious to know which one it is since there are reportedly two versions.

jdulmage 0 Posted November 1, 2000 i'm going to answer a stupid question with a stupid answer, but an obvious one. Every beta of Whistler that MS releases will be your choice of Personal, Professional, Server and Advanced Server available on WinBeta. It all depends and who downloads what and who leaks whatever. And yes beta 1 is out. Share this post Link to post
