google_byte 0 Report post Posted February 6, 2005 Microsoft Bill Gates edition?? Wow sound interesting. Is it real? I wonder what would be in it. Maybe the default wallpaper would be a picture of his computer? lol Too bad I can't buy that. It would be okay. Btw since Microsoft set up that thing to scan computers when you update patches and they freeze computers that aren't legible I would recommend not using it if your friend does have it.

FireStorm~ 0 Report post Posted February 7, 2005 Yea post it here i would really want to see that bill gates version. I bet it is probably so much better than ours and everything. Faster and more durable. Or it is just not in existance. Because i read once that he used Linux. Or atleast he recommended everyone to use Linux. This is all rumors but unless there is a leak then there will be something worth the wild. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
novaforme 0 Report post Posted February 7, 2005 yea, I bet its just a style to make it look like a Bill Gates Edition, because i have searched and searched and i cant find anything on a Bill Gates Edition(not to mention I goto the Microsoft Professional Developers Conference every year and have heard nothing about it) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iwuvcookies 0 Report post Posted February 7, 2005 yeh i have never heard of it before. Maybe your friend was lying to you. You know some non literate computer people get tricked by people who know how to trick you. wait that's probably confusing. lol. He's probably installing the Windows Longhorn version or soemthing. But it wouldn't be weird if Bill Gates had his own windows. Since he is the developer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
adriantc 0 Report post Posted February 7, 2005 It's not possible for Microsoft to lunch a Windows Bill Gates Edition! Maybe what you friend has is one of the themes packs. For example I have a transformation pack that turns your Windows Xp into Longhorn. It's not a full transformation...it only changes your screen saver, icons, boot screee, login screen and other stuff. The good thing and the bad thing about it is that it modifies the system files which make it faster (compared to other programs) and it has a slight possibility of killind your windows. Never happened to me thought...Give it a try: Windows Longhorn Transformation Pack v8.0! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dontmaimyourself 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2005 I also doubt the existance of Microsoft Windows Bill Gates edition, because lets face if Bill Gates is as smart as he's supposed to be then he would have Linux on his home computer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

finaldesign 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2005 Ok, so let's analyse a bit. First open this link and search for term "Bill Gates Edition". Now if that's true it's just a regular winxp with integrated sp1 and sp2. And that is nothing new, it's stupid, you can done it yourself, I will put a tutorial here on forums when I catch some time - so you can integrate sp1 & sp2 yourself to winxp. Anyway, lets go little further... If you follow this link, you will find that there is a hash for e-donkey download, so people are really spreading that "bill gates edition" around the net... That just gives us an evidence on real existance of "bill gates edition - winxp" so, let's just dig a little while... Search on https://www.microsoft.com/de-de for "Bill Gates Edition" and you will came up with nothing. So basicly - do not ask stupid questions, because that phrase "Bill Gates Editon" really is just a scam from some stupid users who name it that way because it had integrated an sp1 & sp2. p.s. Search. Learn. And find out what's scam and what is just a phrase. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
