Media player is alot better, and there is new tab in the add a remove programs for setting default programs, and removing all microsoft software. New messenger, And few more, DirectX 9 and a new version of VM for java. It seemed pretty nice and smooth when i use it, hopefully the final will be even better.:D

Not sure, but from what i heard, that was the reason for the aug 30th date, for a full release including windows media pro the new version of their music format.

Yeah, but you wouldn't actually count on MS updates to NOT be piecemeal, right?
