Maybe it is preparing for the OS to come after VISTA.

We should just accept that it will never come. _________________ John Trappett |

There is such a thing as hope... and it's justified in certain situations. But to hold onto hope after continual disappointment is surely more akin to delusion.  _________________ John Trappett |

Hope/delusion - could be either.
I would be ecstatic just to see a new VDS with only two things:
- More user variables
- A browser element with no version checking, allowing it to be run on a server without administrator privileges.
Evidently, both of those features are sitting there, waiting to be released!
I know that people thought the delay was related to the owner's health. Has anyone spoken with him? Hopefully he is doing much better, with or without the VDS release. _________________ Joe Floyd |

I have found it puzzling and ironic over the many many many years
since I was a young lad that the word "soon" has taken on a completely
different meaning.
Years ago when someone referred to "soon" it was generally meant to convey the meaning of a few days or a couple of weeks or in the context of something big , maybe a year.
Ironically in this computer age of gigahertz, terabytes, and nanosecs , "soon" seems to have taken on the meaning of " sometime in the indefinate future , eh! maybe never!".
" VERY SOON" I am not so sure. But I am definately intrigued!!!
Just an observation.

I hope you're right. But to be honest, I've just about given up waiting as we seem to hear these rumours around this time every year... _________________ cheers

I believe you're more likely to get struck by lighting before VDS 6 is release. HEhhehehehehee  _________________ 'What you do not want done to yourself, do not do to others.' - Confucius (550 b.c. to 479 b.c.) |

Possibly but I have some solid evidence sitting (installed) here that says otherwise  |
