Feeling adventurous? Give Vista a try!
Feeling adventurous? Here’s your chance to give Windows Vista a try long before it’s out on shelves. Microsoft has put the beta up for public testing, so you can check it out if you have the incliination. I’m wondering whether it will work on the Mac, so I’ll be downloading it this weekend.
Big ol’ warning though. I’ve had some BAD experiences with beta operating systems before. I definitely would not reccomend installing this on your one and only computer. Put it on a spare, or make sure you have a heck of a good backup.

No guts, no glory!
I have a few machines around here I don’t mind sacrificing, especially since they belong to the district…

Not sure, Joe. Go ask the ten people who own an Apple computer.

Steve, hope your luck is better than mine. Vista complains about ACPI compatability when you try and install WVB2 under Parallels.
Haven’t tried it under boot camp.
