Yes, thatīs right. Here is a screenshot of the Beta 1 (Build 2296) and a screenie of the Beta 2 (Build 2462):

Beta 1


Beta 2

What's the point? Whistler 2462 looked like an early XP w/ an experimental Luna, and many bugs.

I like the watercolor theme.

could someone send me the iso

This is an attempted question and as such, it should finish with a question mark. I think you mean "What's your problem?". Is that really so difficult?

Neptune wasn't released either, nor were the Longhorns; but we got them. Who says it was never made? "Infact" is NOT a word.

Neptune 2211? blink.gif blink.gif blink.gif

How about 5111?

Neptune was cancelled, as you rightly stated. Seemingly much like yourself, it did NOT evolve.
devildan

Do you have some old builds of Windows Chicago? Weīre looking for some versions prior build 122. The exact build numbers are:

- Build 58s (very rare, must be the first beta)

- Build 73g

- and Build 74

If you have some of them it would be very kind of you when you can upload the builds on a FTP-Server. I think they arenīt very big.
Merkava
THE GAME i remember i had a beta server but i havent sen him in a long time.
devildan
err i will have a look for you mate.just got to look through 300 cd's. whats an added bonus is some are proper ms beta tester cd's! and some are copys. but i will have a look.
So i might have it. I have most of erm. even the old windows 1.0 and then it works up!

I have 98 betas to i think
SRock
