I downloaded RC1 to check it out. It failed to find my Linksys nic card, SB16PCI sound card, and HP Printer.
Lust got RC2 and nothing has changed. Still no sound, no internet and no printing. It is a good thing I switched to PCLINUXOS recently. Doesn't look like windoze is ready for the desktop yet. Which could be a good thing, might slow down the malware and virus writers. I don't
see any reason to downgrade from Linux here.
