No! I mean like a link to a warez site that has it or something of that nature.

phantomAI
01-07-03, 04:23 PM
snapper1, this isn't the correct thread to post this question

Rule:

Action: Warez (pirated software), explict pornography of any kind or mp3s that are not original (music files) will NOT be allowed.

You're lucky that Longhorn alpha at the moment is in the grey area so it isn't warez yet.

In that case check your pm. ;)

What do you expect the Police do what they want when they want, I dont expect any officer to be reprimanded, do you?
how many working class people would run to the assistance of a Policeman ?
Here in the States there like Vampires they only come out at night, at least the Traffic Police anyhow. Daylight is to much of a disadvantage.

Having said that i challenge the said police Dept Make him buy a new puppy out of his wages and take it to the Owners door and apologise, would he do it ???

Really the best reason would would be that it would be inpossible for it to say 6.1 because that number would mean that it runs nt 6.1 but the Longhorn that is on our computers says 6.0
6.1 actually is the NT version of Blackcomb.

Everything that is new will work on XP but if you want to play anything that is old will not work. That is why people do not like it for gaming
