That color scheme has to be the loudest and most clashing I've ever seen in a UI. It'd fit in perfectly at a FIRST competition though. ;)

Not exactly....I forget where I first read about it, but they're still advertising that you can order it on their web site. And it's 19.95 if you want the RC1 mailed on a CD(what I got)...didn't really feel like downloading a 650MB ISO file over a dialup...

I may have to try some of that stuff with Microsoft in the future...

Am I the only person who has a 56K anymore? We don't even have two phone lines in my house.

RC2 is availible for official download today (or when you get your e-mail, first batch goes out today), but you've been able to get it other ways for the last few days ;)

56k dial-up...1 phone line. Yeah, my mom and I argue over phone line usage ALL THE TIME. *can't wait for campus OC-3 hookup....really really really really can't wait*
