Posted by on Mar 31, 2005 | 3 Comments

“Over the weekend, Microsoft posted the “Indigo” and “Avalon” community technology previews for free to anyone with the bandwidth to download them.

Previously, the pre-beta versions of the two Windows subsystems for Windows Longhorn, Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 had been available only to MSDN subscribers.

“This CTP release recently became available to MSDN subscribers and is now being released to the general public in response to numerous requests,” Microsoft noted on its download page.

Microsoft originally released the Indigo and Avalon CTPs March 16. The CTP for the Indigo communications subsysytem was the first Microsoft has released since expanding Indigo and Avalon beyond the Longhorn operating system in August. An earlier CTP for the Avalon presentation subsystem came out in November.

The Indigo and Avalon CTPs are available here in a 450-MB download.”

    I just p a i d $21.87 for an i P a d 2-64GB and my boyfriend loves his Panasonîc Lumîx GF 1 Camera that we got for $38.76 there arriving tomorrow by UPS.I will never pay such expensive retail prices in stores again. Especially when I also sold a 40 inch LED TV to my boss for $657 which only cost me $62.81 to buy.
    Here is the website we use to get it all from, BidFirst.com

    A fair device very usefull for reps and salespeople but for regular presentations I would need a remote controller. Using buttons on the device to go back and forth in a ppt presentation is clumsy and will be very unpractical and jeopardize image stability (also degrade the overall end impression).
