If the beta testers would be so kind...could they keep the rest of us in the loop on how the patch is working and what it does....(If you are allowed)..thanks jareth

Unfortunately, we're under an NDA concerning the fixes in SP1. As soon as it's lifted, I'm sure you'll see a bunch of testers here posting about their experiences with SP1.

would have been nice to be an open beta, some of us are not that lucky and did not get selected when applying for beta...John

The beta process is much more effective with a controlled group.

Hey, but Phil is away on a long vacation. You could probably get away with beta discussion for at least a few hours before the hammer came down (if we could get the mods to play along, that is).Does the NDA state what M$ would do to you if you violated the NDA? Oh, but that's under NDA too :/ ...

Those of us who participated in the FSX beta can certainly state so publicly. As for the SP1... no one on that beta will be speaking of it until MS says they can.

Gotcha.And congrats on reading the Vista license. A crowning achievement for anybody.

brazil?that would be a wad of dough

It will be interesting to see all the SP1 negative threads after it's released. I think people are expecting too much from SP1. We shall see.

If they are destructively negative then you should only see them briefly, if at all, if the mods do their job as I expect they will.Gary
