MS Vista December CTP

December 19th, 2005

[[http://www.microsoft.com||Microsoft]] are shortly to push out a new CTP (Community Technical Preview) in December of Vista. Apparently there will be an internal “full feature” version floating around Redmond (how long until it leaks?). January 2006 will see a new CTP release and some “new ” features pesented at the CES. Vista CTP builds should be a reaccuring monthly event with emphasis on beta testers to find bugs etc and not be involved so much in feature decisions.

Sounds like a good decision and will give folks a chance to play around with the O/S in a more “full” form and no doubt cause a massive amount of bugs. It’s always the way that individual programs quite often work but mix them up and things can change.

[[http://www.winsupersite.com||Paul Thurrot]] has an excellent article (as usual) on the latest developments of Vista. He’s a lucky guy.
