Q? About the tech refresh

J

John Jay Smith

1) Can I install this without the previous beta 2 installed?
2) Will this fix the problem with installation with Web expression deisgner
(you could install one or the other before it denied your ability to install
both)
3) Is there a SPEED CAP on the speed of the download from the MS servers?

Im using a download manager split the download in 3 parts but cant get over
40-44 K speed... my connection is much faster...

thanks

Ignore the 3rd question about the speed cap.. it was something on my end
that was causing this...
I fixed it

1. No - it is a patch, not a full install.

No.

Yes. Expression Web will work with Office 2007 B2TR. So install Expression
Web Beta 1, install Office 2007 Beta 2, and then install the Office 2007
B2TR patch.

No. B2TR is a patch for B2.
2) Will this fix the problem with installation with Web expression deisgner

It should. I haven't tried to install EW yet though. You definitely need
to install B2 first, then B2TR and then EW.
3) Is there a SPEED CAP on the speed of the download from the MS servers?
The speed cap is 3.5 million users all trying to download it right now.
The servers are holding up quite nice considering the enormous load they
must be under right now.

I am surprised. I thought you hated Office 2007 and the ribbon. Why are you
downloading the technical refresh? Has the Minimize Ribbon feature got you
interested?

I will convince myself to like it because I will have to explain to all the
poor people who will be getting mixed up, how to use it.
