Question Are you willing to CRASH and Burn-


In the meantime, if you wish to become a beta program member, you can do so by registering for the world-wide Windows Vista Beta Experience: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=66411.

Consider carefully, the topic... many times you have to FORMAT to recover when beta testing... It is not for the limited knowledge user. .
Many times the BETA can not be installed over, so you have to FORMAT to start again...
If you have had a (major) problem simply installing a device or program using Vista or Win XP and simply said to your self..(Grrrr, why did I do that or this OS is stupid or WTF is wrong with this CRAP ) .or ask questions like this

Snuffy -- I enjoy reading your posts ( of which I probably understand 20 percent - tops) but when you say "limited user" I had to laugh --- this ole boy is so "limited" I would not attempt to "beta test" a mouse.

Thumbs up

No Problem, on "No to the Mouse Beta Test..."
enjoy the chuckle, and by saying your limited - means your not that limited.
I'm quite sure you would know "how to install SP1" ... the quote is a REAL quote, I did not make it up.
PS: I will not add the replys to that question.
some were step-by-step and quite detailed...

Thanks for the "You enjoy my posts".

I always say, just be careful. However, everyone makes mistakes, and some can be huge; I know I have make some big mistakes along the way. But at the same time, it's fun, plus it's a learning experience as well. I do like testing beta software, I just don't do it where my important documents are maintained.

I saw that you're a beta tester and thought "cool!" One day I want to have the experience and knowledge to try that. I have a devouring curiousity about both computer hardware and, of course software. All I have is theory really so far, I'm an avid reader of computer tomes, and have taken a few courses, but it's great to see a link like that for possible future perusal.
Oh yeah love the mouse, talk about literal! Got quite a chuckle out of that!
