Last Friday, I was prompted to download and install an update to Windows Vista Beta 2… which I foolishly did. Now, I’m rebuilding my laptop from scratch. I tried a newer build of Vista, but was unable to get the VPN to connect, so I downloaded the absolute latest build [5473 for those of you who care or know what I’m talking about] and I was able to connect to the office VPN. So, now, I’m downloading Office 2007 Beta 2 [yeah, I know: more beta software, but that at least seems relatively stable] so I can check my work email and do my job.
I’m hoping that this build will correct several of the other problems I have noticed with the Beta 2 version of Vista. Seems to work fine so far…
