Exciting news today as Microsoft released what they hope will be the last release candidate of Windows Vista before the product goes to manufacturing.
The company made Vista Release Candidate 2 (RC2), or build No. 5744, available to participants in its Customer Preview Program, as well as to TechBeta, TechNet, Technology Adoption Program, and MSDN members.
The previous test release of Vista, RC1, received “excellent feedback” from the estimated 3 million people who tested it, according to Microsoft. The company is using that feedback to put the finishing touches on the overall quality and performance of the operating system, it said.
Microsoft said that it is still on target to release Vista to business customers next month and to consumers in January 2007, though the company continues to give itself an out to miss those dates by saying that the quality of the product is its highest priority. The release of Vista has already been delayed several times.
