    From CDRInfo:

    Microsoft Unveils New Packaging for Vista and Office

    It is similar to the packing of TechNet Plus some years ago.

    That seems a bit relieving. I think they just announce these things to see the response, if people are concerned, go back. If people don,t object too much, nail them! Very bad practice indeed.

    Sorry Aigle, I've been offline for a few days --- I can't answer your question because I have absolutely NO experience with that, I actually just bought my first laptop two days ago (Nov 1st, 2006) - I haven't had the opportuntiy to run more than a 'live' distro [Auditor] on it yet, and image the HD that came with Win Media Center .... Maybe in a few weeks, I'll have some experience and be able to try an answer your question ... until then I'm sorry; I just doesn't have the personal experience to qualify any response --- My apoligies. ;) :)

    Sincerely;

    Steve

    Thanks, no problem at all. I will try linux still after few months( just not have time now for all this new stuff).
    At that time I am going to post it in linux forums.

    Thanks a lot.
