Tom, the link you gave to the Vista page contains a link to download the Windows SDK. Unfortunately the link to the Windows SDK is dead. Could you get that back up? I'm sure a lot of folks will be trying the new beta and will want to download the SDK.

By the way, are the Windows SDK and WinFX updated for the new beta?

Judah:

Unfortunately, there's a problem in propogation. It's been reported and the SDK link should be live shortly.

Yes, the Windows SDK and WinFX are in alignment with Beta 2.

Tom,

When I attempt to install the WinFX runtime on Vista Beta 2 (Ultimate) setup asks me whether I want to repair or unistall -- Are the Beta 2 components of the WinFX runtime already installed in Vista Beta 2? (In earlier CTP releases they were not, but someone from MS said that they would be included in future Beta releases.)

Good Site Design......Since I'm referring the Vista site from its original Longhorn version..........and it is good resouce for the Windows lovers....

re: New Windows Vista and WinFX Sites Launched

Jack: Yes, the WinFX Runtime Components are installed by default on Windows Vista Beta 2. I will update the "Get the Beta" page today to make that clearer. Thanks for the heads-up to that issue.

Is windows vista ever going to be released publicly,
I know ms said beta 2 would be public but it isn't.
You still have to pay a fortune for an msdn or technet subscription.....

re: New Windows Vista and WinFX Sites Launched

John: Please read the headline text before making inaccurate comments.

"Windows Vista Beta 2 is now available to MSDN subscribers. Developers who are not subscribers can obtain Windows Vista Beta 2 in the coming weeks via the Windows Vista Customer Preview Program (CPP). And WinFX Runtime Components Beta 2 is now available to all developers. "

As the text pretty clearly states, Vista Beta 2 will be publicly available via CPP in the coming weeks.

And by the way, it costs $375 to join the EmpowerISV program where you get an MSDN subscription containing tens of thousands of dollars worth of software. So not exactly a "fortune" if you take the time to look at your options.
