For the last couple of days, the Microsoft File Transfer Manager has been running on one of my PCs, downloading 5.33Gb of Windows code name “Longhorn” and IE7 beta software from Microsoft Connect (averaging out at about 65kbps). Sometime last night, it all finally completed but then a few minutes ago, DHL delivered a package from Microsoft in Redmond containing… you guessed it… bootable DVDs of Windows Vista Professional Beta 1 and Windows Code Name “Longhorn” Beta 1. Arghhhhh!!!
