Build 10031
All that remains is for Microsoft to deliver on their promise of a faster
cycle of build releases for Insiders, which should mean we will get to play around with a new build sometime in the coming week. www.neowin.net |

Curiosity got to me but on my end 10031 is not yet available. What the heck, when it is I guess I will go with it just to have a look I have 9926 update installed now. It made a 450MB recovery partition (for booting to Command Prompt). As for the UI, I tried to start an application and got a "spinning wheel of death". My command to start a program was not obeyed. I shut down the OS and disconnected the hard drive. Hey, Microsoft! It's my computer. You can't have it. If I want a "spinning wheel of death" as my companion, I'll buy a Mac. The sad part is, the computer is a hex core, and many times, the CPU is doing nothing, and the GUI is giving me the finger. What kind of a stupid design is that ? Is the intent to take the best CPUs, and make them run with tablet lethargy ? Profit! Paul |

You can run microsoft office in linux crossover! Hi Darklight, Crossover is just another word for the Wine project, except you pay for it and get nothing of any extra value from it. I run Lotus Approach, 123, Word Pro, plus Acrobat 8 in Wine. They have severe problems. Acrobat 8 is a complete nightmare in Wine. And the Wine project can take up to five years to fix a bug, except for games, which they jump on right away. Wine is still in Alpha stage. I ran M$O Word 2003 from Wine at a customers site once. It had a number of issues. In my experience, it is better to run Libre Office on Linux that to run M$O under wine, especially now that Libre Office is so good at reading M$O's proprietary code. I wouldn't have said this a year ago about Libre Office, but they have come a long way and they actaully fix their bugs. -T |
