Various versions of Whistler have been kicking around for months- nothing new. It uses the NT5 kernel just like 2000 so if you have the drivers for your hardware it will run pretty much anything 2000 will run. I have 2 or 3 different Beta versions, but never bothered to load them up- The betas are all buggy and still not quite ready for the market, or they would be selling them.

Besides who the hell wants to rent software from Bill anyway? XP will be like 2000 that you have to pay for upgrades to keep current. They will give it to you in installments, so you will never have a complete copy that you could distribute, or run on multiple machines.
