Windows vista beta testing. Is anyone doing it?

[ingeborgdot]

I have a chance to beta test the vista os. Is anyone else doing it? If I decide to I will need a computer to do it on other than my main ones. I guess I will just look for someones used one.

I am currently not testing it but if you go to the Neowin.net forums there are quite a few official beta testers there and a forum dedicated to just the Vista beta.

I am typing this message from a Dell D600 laptop running Vista currently (12/20).

It is a little buggy still, I am looking forward to the next release in 06 to hopefully smooth out some of the explorer problems. Explorer crashed on me 4 times in the first hour I was using it this morning, normally when I am trying to either browse files or install from the network file server.

The supplemental driver pack and the normal XP drivers I use worked though, so hardware support was a breeze.

I'm using it - as Audiofight said there aren't too many hardware problems (I'm on a D610 laptop) and it's ok for general stuff. We're using it to test our main applications at the moment
