Comment Re:Long Zheng seems like a nice bloke (Score 2, Funny) 388

Actually... I doubt I'd call him nice since... well, I'll quote a small excerpt from the link:

First, I was originally going to blackmail Microsoft for a large ransom for the details of this flaw, but in these uncertain economic times, their ransom fund has probably been cut back so I'm just going to share this for free.

Let's see what other people think of him now...

Comment Re:This seems abrupt (Score 1) 856

Don't quote me on it. I haven't done extensive research on it. But from what I have glanced over, a lot of people seem to have little problem with the beta. It runs fine. There are little issues. And some are saying that it's release-worthy. I do not know if they are smoking crack or if they're telling the truth with a mid-range or "average" computer running it. That's something people will have to find out when Win7 is out in retail.

If the OS is truly that stable during beta, then I see no point in keeping it in beta. So it makes perfect sense to push it into RC and see if it can be given the RTM stamp of approval.
