  1. Grabbed a few of the songs, and I was really expecting them to suck... you know, most of the time people post up their hobby music tracks there is good reason they are a hobby.

     

    These could be some really great songs with a better drum machine (or a drummer) and some production work... still, very nice.

  2. Windows 7 is the official name. It is called Windows 7 because it is the 7th version of windows. They will be using version numbers for the rest of their releases... no more numbers, just version numbers.

     

    I have found one piece of software that does not work with Windows 7. The Cisco VPN software... if you install it; you will blue screen.

  3. Evidently you could download it previously. I see one up on a <.< "special site" that says it was taken from MS' site this morning before they got slammed. Also said you will need an SN from MS eventually but you don't need it to install.

     

    Jordan, is the MSDN one the same exact one as this one? If so, I might just grab it from a guy here at work.

     

    Most likely the same build. Released to close to the same date to have different versions. They typically don't start doing any feature divergence until closer to release.

  4. I would pay the difference for an NVidia card due to the driver issues as well. At one point Microsoft received so many complaints related to ATI video cards that they actually flew their developers in and gave them a free driver development bootcamp since eating the cost on that was worth it in payback on reduced support calls / tickets. Many years ago but still.. I have no love for ATI.

  5. Yeah, would be interesting to crack it open and see what you have inside. Might be able to do some sweet mods or something.

     

    One thing worth trying is freezing it. Some people believe in it some people don't but I had it work for my multiple times. If you freeze a bad hard drive sometimes you can access them for a short period of time. Might be able to confirm if it is just a drive issue. Of course, I have no idea how that unit would respond to freezing temperatures.
