[17:38] pmo: I'm not talking RC either. I'm talking about the version made available internally to us Microsoft employees. [17:38] (which is I would imagine, less polished than the RC) [17:39] pmo: No, I'm telling you I tried SP1 three months ago. [17:40] (What existed of SP1, three months ago, that the PSD team made available to us). [17:54] Arrick: The VS IDE's (devenv) regular-expression find and replace makes that conveniently possible. [17:54] But writing a simple application to do it is also trivial. [17:57] Many editors can do regular-expressions for find and replace now. As I mentioned before, the Visual Studio IDE's editor does it nicely. [17:59] Arrick: We've dropped the .NET moniker recently, but sure version 7.0 (.NET/2002), 7.1 (2003), 8.0 (2005) and 9.0 (2008) all have it [18:00] I have very little experience with the Office applications, so I wouldn't be able to tell you. [18:03] I personally feel they are expensive. [18:05] This suddenly became very juvenile. [18:52] What is your friend's alias? If he works here I should be able to see him on Communicator. [18:54] niz-8]: Hi. @microsoft.com alias? (Feel free to whisper it if you don't want anyone else to know). [18:59] niz-8]: I believe what I used was named SP1, with no tag attached - whether it is functionally equivalent in any way to what is available to customers now I cannot say. The development I was doing was independent of it. I can confirm that the kernel version was the same as the 2008 server box I use now. [19:05] niz-8]: I have my reservations, none-the-less. [19:08] niz-8]: Forgive me if I don't see how my refusal to your second question isn't the same as for the first. :) [19:09] pmo: (If the doubt is whether I work for MS or not, then that is easily satisfied; aside from freenode's automatic cloak on my tide*.microsoft.com host, you could whois me on another network, or I could send you an e-mail from my work address. :) ) [19:11] emet: Yes, I do not know why; (on Undernet:) xystic is ~xystic@tide543.microsoft.com * xystic [19:14] emet: There are many more; Pilchie in ##CSharp is one, and vulture who is often on ##C++ with us is another. [19:17] obnauticus: Of Redmond/Bellevue? [19:18] pmo: SDE (Software Development Engineer), if you're interested. [19:18] emet: From what I understand, our recruiting drive is fairly strong. [19:21] PureEvilGeek: It is no small task, but definitely not impossible. :) I opted out, at third round with Google. (The position was in Sydney, and I saw this as an opportunity to come here). [19:23] phxheat: You've tried MoveFileEx() with the flag that involves performing the operation upon reboot? [19:29] If he disagrees that three months ago we had Vista SP1 on network install, then I would love to talk to him on Communicator and inquire what makes him say that.
