For a long time, I always stayed away from trying beta software and especially beta operating systems. I didn’t try Windows 98 until SP1, and really didn’t get into it until Windows 98SE. I didn’t try Windows 2000 Pro until like 2002, and I never used Windows XP before SP1. And by the time I used XP, shortly after SP2 was released.
And now, I have just seen Windows Vista, but don’t have it installed on any computer I use. Not at work, and not at home.
However, for the first time ever, I am running Windows 7 Beta on one of my home computers and running Internet Explorer 8 RC1 on my work computer. And although the IT department may not be pleased to hear that, I can provide my own support.
But, I have to say, I like both. They have been very stable and have (knock on wood) not giving me any problems even with web applications that require java and all that good stuff.
What is everyone else’s experience with Microsoft’s beta software?
