    My Vista Beta disc from TechNet is 2.4 GB. I think they are to make the next Beta available for the general public. Can't you get your school to pay out for a Technet+ subscription?

    Hi Guys,

    Thanks for the suggestions. As for the TechNet subcription, anything like this and the management's faces turn right down i've been aksing for a maintainance contract on our core switch for ages but so far no luck. These top level folks haven't got a clue about the potential impact of that core switch.

    They are brilliant at generating requirements but haven;t got the got a clue how to implement it or how much it may cost.

    Ash.

    How much would this be?
    Where do I go to get it?
    What reasons do I give school for paying for this?

    Re: Windows vista

    Since MS are dropping the Beta 2 release of Vista it looks ever more likely that people without a Technet subscription might not see this one for some time yet.

    I'm talking with my systems manager about a sub this week...

    We have one and its very handy for certain things, as well as being able to test lots of software before stumping up the cash for it.
