[trancehead]

It didn't work for me in Chrome but IE7 sees it.

Showing the aero theme fine as well pot?

It only runs on hobbiestOS AFAIK.

From wikipedia:

GNU Midnight Commander (mc) is a free cross-platform orthodox file manager and a clone of Norton Commander.

Here's a picture of it running on the hobbiest of hobby OSes.

Is there a local download for this?

 

[Netguy]

Gleen some Windows 7 Tips from http://blogs.zdnet.com/Bott/?p=958 - also on running it in XP mode.

Err.. Hell yeah better than vista.

PS: if anyone got a copy in durbs please let me know.

 

[Borrels]

There really is no replacement for Total Commander...

Or maybe xplorer2? http://www.zabkat.com/

My preference in any case.

If the people at work didn't stop the download yesterday, it would've been finished by now!

Thats not an orthodox file manager so the room is still only half lit.

Anyone in the Randburg/Midrand area who wouldn't mind burning me a copy of the 32bit (and if possible) 64bit versions.

Tried to download on iBurst, but it keeps timing out. Will provide discs.

This has what to do with the price eggs?

Its awesomeness must be broadcast!!

now if only win7 had punkbuster support

Oh just incase anyone is wondering if you want it using local BW then its pretty simple, start the download process with your int account then reconnect with only the local one and it will carry on downloading on local BW. I know this because im busy doing it.

hehe, mine has completed after 22hours on a 384kb line.

Bah an hour to go still, its lucky i have a spare 4mb line floating in my office

Really an improvement over the beta, the beta felt rough around the edges and they've trimmed it. Very happy to not have Vista installed thank goodness.

I noticed a South Africa theme though, is this because of locale or standard with 7?

 

[Rocket-Boy]

I battled with quite a few things on win7 beta. Programs would hang randomly and things just generally didnt work. Hoping this one is better.

Really rocket? damn i have tried 2 version the 7000 and 7048 and they have been rock solid.

Like i said do not rely on the stock drivers, load all the vista drivers for your hardware.

Yeah it sucks dude, I actualy re-installed it last night cos my dsl line was down at home and I couldnt shoot people in the face
I have the 7000 build and I gave up after an hour of it being silly. Going to try the new one tonight though!

Still no fix for Punkbuster though?

 

[Abe]

Try this...

I tried that with no luck. Just make sure yours did not use up your international bandwidth.

 

[killadoob]

PB won't be fixed until windows is released and remember vista drivers are your friend
