Downloading now. Thanks. (We'll see if it is as much of a nightmare to
download as Vista Beta 2 was with the CPP.)

I don't think there will be a problem as this build the file size is a lot
smaller and not as many people can get it.

Yes it can. Please..Please do that as upgrading from Beta 2 to RC1 will be
what a lot of people will be doing. Also see my latest post "Suggestion of
5536" and make your feedback / bugs public so we can all help each other
make Vista better.

I have a dedicated drive with dual boot between 32 and 64bit. . .any
thoughts on upgrading that. . .will 5536 detect 32/64 and install current or
both on the dual boot disk?

Well, they probably figured if they let Kevin have it, they might as well
