Re: Christmas came early
Being in MSDN didn't have anything to do with it.

Being in Connect, submitting at least one bug via the Bug Reporting Utility
is a different story.

Re: Christmas came early
No, I am not in MSDN....Maybe its all the legal MS programs I have. Maybe
its all the reports I did!
Or is it because I have a nice personality?
Ho Ho Ho.

I really missed out for waiting for Vista to be pretty stable with RC2
before trying it out. I could have (and still can) point out various bugs
with this OS. You guys that are getting this free licence should have done
a better job!

Re: Christmas came early
Just a beta tester.....
The instructions where very simple. How many phone calls and emails did you
do?
I must have done it right.
P.S. Mr. Scrooge, you ain't stealing my Christmas......

Re: Christmas came early
I thought the requirement was bug reports, not "phone calls and emails".
There is a bug in your answer.

Re: Christmas came early
No bug in my answers. You have trouble you report it. How many errors
messages did you report? The bottom line is, I must have reported what they
wanted to know. Also, did you use Windows Feedback Panel Software? Many
stated here earlier, they thought it was loaded with spyware (LOL). Did you
call? Did you email. Using the WFPS, I reported over 150 errors using Vista,
and IE 7, Office 2007, Windows Live. I got the 1st beta of Vista and Office
2007, and Windows Live, and started reporting. Excluding all the negative
responses you did here, what did you report to MS if any? I have Vista on 4
computers here, 2 on HP, 2 on Dell. Build 5600 is what I am now using on all
with no problems. Now I have a question for you "Mr. Vista", if you are not
Bill Gates you should change your name here. If you are Bill Gates, thanks
for the early Christmas present. Best Holiday Wishes to all at Microsoft,
great job guys/gals.

Re: Christmas came early
It would depend on which beta testing group(s) he was in. While the Vista
TechBeta group required one bug report filed on Connect via MBC, as I
understand, emails and/or phone calls I submitted in the TAP beta group also
qualify, and there were some testers in the TechBeta group who were also in
the TAP group.
