What a joke - this beta installs itself with an end tagline of
testtesttest.... and it then won't even uninstall properly (I let it run in
"complete" mode for 30 secs and cancelled)...
Gosh, I skipped past the user agreement without saving that part to my
clipboard... now when I reinstall it I don't get the option to review the
user agreement again. WTF?
Now I've "uninstalled", and rebooted (twice) it won't give me the User
Agreement again... someone else can post that here maybe...
So I downloaded something beta from MS, agreed to something beta,
"uninstalled" - something beta.
Why the heck would I want to entrust MS with my system with this thing they
call beta? It's less than alpha...

Microsoft's release software is full of bugs. Why on earth would you
install a BETA product on Vista?
Problems....Problems....Problems....

NEVER install Beta anything from any source unless you are prepared
for total data loss and a Clean Installation of the operating system
to resolve any issues.
While Beta rarely cause such extreme issues, by their nature they are
potentially damaging to the operating system and Data.
"Why the heck would I want to entrust MS with my system"
You're not, it is a Beta.
Everything is entrusted to you and only you are responsible.
This applies to Beta from any source, not just Microsoft.

You mean like Vista? Everybody knows so far it's just a beta.
Windows Vista is not a Beta, but your useless remarks depend on that.
Your inability to Run Windows Vista is more reflective or your
abilities.
Many claim to know less than you claim and yet have far more success.
It seems yet again you simply can not control yourself and pass one of
my posts without making some comment.
And as usual, you have contributed NOTHING to what the OP has said.
All very typical of you.
Post back as I am sure you will.
Your ego probably needs it, no other purpose will be served.
