FYI,
I tried to order the 64 bit OS on DVD - it only lists the 32bit DVD as
an option

FWIW, the new "Windows Vista Ultimate" Beta2 Preview build is now
available for download or ordering a CD from
http://microsoft.com/windowsvista/getready/preview.mspx

Note, however, this admonition on the website.

This is beta code and should not be used in a production environment or
on a main machine in the home. Beta 2 is intended for developers, IT
professionals and technology experts to continue or begin their testing
of Windows Vista. Before you decide to use Beta 2, you should feel
comfortable with installing operating systems, updating drivers, and
general PC troubleshooting. Some risks of using beta operating systems
include hardware and software incompatibility and system instability. If
you have concerns about installing this beta software on your computer,
we encourage you to obtain the final release version of Windows Vista
when it is available in 2007.

For Office 2007 Beta 2, it isn't supported on Windows vista builds
earlier than 5384, so any issues that you find in build 5308
compatibility mode aren't going to be too valid in trying to wring out
bugs in Office 2007 before it launches :)

absolutely correct - works fine thank you. >>

I'm running 5384 (from CD, don't know about '-2'; don't know what that is)
IE7b2 is working fine. I've downloaded OfficeProPlus, VisioPro, ProjectPro,
OneNote and BCM. (Don't plan to use BCM.) OfficeProPlus and VisioPro both
extracted, loaded, authenticated and run fine. Can't get ProjectPro or
OneNote to extract from either a USB 20M Archer or 1G stick; go through the
motions on double-click but never start the extraction process. All work
fine on an XPSP2 Sony VAIO laptop across the room using the same disk setups.


Guess I'll copy them to the Vista hard drive and try it that way.

Overall I'm very pleased with all the improvements.
