WE learned that Microsoft postponed its Windows Vista beta 2. We are talking about the real beta two that will have support for Nvidia's and ATI's graphic cards. Right now, most of Nvidia's and ATI's cards won't work with this operating system as you simply don't have any drivers for it. The fastest ATI that works on the OS is X850 and that is what everyone demonstrated back at CES in January 2006. That is old and we want support for the latest cards.
Beta 2 was expected in February, at least this is what we heard from sources close to Microsoft and from some beta members of the Windows community but it didn't happen. We think that Beta 2 should be close to release but there have been some rumours that Microsoft plans to skip the Beta 2 and go for either Beta 3 or Release candidate 1 instead.
