I'm normally a Unix (and Mac too) user, but I just recieved an email from Microsoft Tech stating that I was eligible to try out the new OS taking over from XP. The .ISO is a 3Gb download, but I can have it now.....
It's a very fast download site, so that's good. 5 minutes in and it's already done 150mb.
I'll let you know how it goes after I install it onto a spare disk. I'm quite looking forward to running the new GUI - and to see what MS are going to encourage the public to use for the next few years. I also wonder what's going to break..... again!
