I have 5536 up and running I have seen some improvements from the last build I played with I thnk that was a the first one they called Vista.
Only one thing that I dont like and thats the virus programs that work !

I installed 5536 in 28mins. Iv now upgraded insted of a fresh install to RC1 which took 1 hour and 15 mins. Not good :) I must say that it looks and behaves the same as 5536 and iv not found anything new so far but heres a couple of screens.

Edit - Halo no longer works but did in 5536 and AVG antivirus no longer works but did with 5536.

nitram, did you say you "upgraded"? those always take way longer than a clean install. yeah, i was expecting some apps to no longer work :D (i hope firefox and thunderbird still do :) ).

Hey guys, sorry im sort of late on this, but my BW is really being used by an upload :P

Here are some screenies of RC1 i hope you enjoy and will experience for yourself. This build is fast, but as nitram said, no real noticable changes from 5536 or 5552 I'll be running this for a day or so and do a review on it :)

Questions, Ask here! :D
