Hmm well the beta 1 24.. ehh 19 or 21 or something I tried wasnt very stable on my system. I am eager to see the next beta too but I am not as positive as you guys yet.


I didnt know it was due that soon already, great thanks.

Are you a Beta tester? How is it that all you guys have access to this stuff?

Cheers

You can download the different versions of whistler from all kinds of different servers.
Search the chat channels of for example EFnet there people can give you recent server adresses (they tend to change fast ).

good luck

Reading these posts it seems that nobody on this list is a real Whistler beta tester except me. If you were you'd know what is and isn't going to be released and when. Hint: don't believe everything you read.

I just got a copy of Whistler Build 2419. Is this the most recent beta. I tried installing it last night had a BSOD and a few errors on install SO I cancelled the install.

If it is the newest Beta are you guys getting errors on install also.

Sorry about the post only about whistler and not CUSL2, but don't know who else to ask since I'm not a beta tester.

Windows XP is the official name for Windows Whisler! XP stands for "Experience"! LOL.
