  1. @zackwhittaker This is not a change in the schedule, and I haven't heard anything to confirm the report you refer to
  2. @palavering I love it when I do something good and I didn't even know it!
  3. MS says "late July" is "when Windows 7 reaches the release to manufacturing (RTM) milestone" http://is.gd/1uM3r (via @maryjofoley)
  4. r @fyiguy ah yes, IIRC that's because you can't index a flash drive and indexing is a requirement of any library location
  5. @fyiguy Removable drives as in USB flash drives?
  6. @adacosta "Rules: Enter the complete date when you believe Microsoft will officially ANNOUNCE the release to manufacturing of Windows 7"
  7. @norrathreaver OK, whatever. Thanks for the input.
  8. @norrathreaver I have no idea WTF you are talking about. My contest is based on the date the press release goes out.
  9. @norrathreaver Did you actually read what I wrote? I mentuion the difference between date stamp and presss release date.
  10. @clubdirthill I[m not fighting with anyone and am frankkly baffled by the nitpicking here.
  11. @norrathreaver I'm very happy for you.
  12. @norrathreaver I'm not missing anything. I've had public and private conversations and am confident about what I wrote.
  13. @conhopper Sheesh.
  14. @norrathreaver "will deliver Release to Manufacturing (RTM) code to partners in the second half of July. " Even says RTM.
  15. @norrathreaver Where did you get that from? I'm going by the press release that says "Windows XXX has been released to manufacturing."
  16. Who will win the Windows 7 release date prediction pool? From my early-2008 contest, these are the finalists: http://is.gd/1u2O7
  17. Considering trip to Dublin/Galway at end of August. Went once on junket 20+ years ago, would like to go back. Worth a visit? Suggestions?
  18. @charlieo Thanks! I just sent you a chapter via e-mail.
  19. @geektonic Each time I say this is going to be my last book. Then they pull me in again! Will be nice to be able to blog more.
  20. Best captcha EVAH. Ticketmaster just gave me "32-year-old temerity" as a captcha. It's funny because it's true.
