Maybe calm down and take a breath
Funny thing. . .if MS put out a 10 TP that was not up to par folks cry out those stupid people at MS have no idea what they are doing. . .Albeit when they work hard at attempting to get it right, but miss getting it out at a specific time then they are again stupid people who just can't get it right. . .go figure. . .
I am certainly not in the category you describe, nor have I ever been.
I'm more upset that they didn't at least say something, rather than just let the drop slip without any comment at all.
I'm with what the majority of folks have said . . . if it takes longer, it takes longer. Just keep us in the loop. We're insiders; and I would like to be treated as an insider.
I don't mind waiting for MS to get the next build right before they release it. Just don't lead me on and not deliver when they said it would be released. If the release date had to be pushed back we should have been told. Instead we get a I didn't say that statement.
I know; some of us are just more impatient than others. I was really looking forward to the next drop, but right now I don't see it coming for awhile. Thankfully, something else came up in the beta department that will occupy my time for a bit. :)
Greg Aul sent out insider letters today, but I didn't get one. I got one last time, so I'm thinking they'll go out in batches.
What else is MS doing?

10 Satya Nadella Quotes That Tell Us What He’ll Do As Microsoft’s CEOMicrosoft confirms that Spartan will be in the next Windows 10 preview releaseNow that Satya Nadella has become Microsoft’s new CEO that everyone wants to know, what will he do? Though considered a falling star, Microsoft remains formidable, and Nadella’s actions could turn the company into a comeback kid. Here are ten quotes that hint at the path Nadella will take as Redmond’s head cheese.
"Our industry does not respect tradition – it only respects innovation."
"Be passionate and bold. Always keep learning. You stop doing useful things if you don’t learn."
"Our job is to ensure Microsoft will thrive in a mobile and cloud-first world."
"In the post-Snowden world, you need to enable others to build their own cloud and have mobility of applications. That’s both because of the physicality of computing–where the speed of light still matters–and because of geopolitics."
"Over the next 10 years, we’ll reach a point where nearly everything has become digitized."
"Devices are where experiences come together. On Surface Pro, a lot of the experience is on the device, but all of the applications that run on the device have back ends in the cloud."
"I think playing cricket taught me more about working in teams and leadership that has stayed with me throughout my career."
"You’re trying to take something that can be described in many, many sentences and pages of prose, but you can convert it into a couple lines of poetry and you still get the essence, so it’s that compression. The best code is poetry."
"We will continue to make strides in providing innovation in the realm of connected systems that bridge the unstructured world of human processes with the structured world of business applications."
"I'm also grounded in our challenges, in fact, that’s the adventure […] which creates the competitive zeal in me to do great work."
There’s no doubt that Nadella comes off as a softer, more open individual than either Ballmer or Gates, and that might lead some to fear that he lacks the courage needed to move a company like Microsoft forward. As this quote shows, it’d be a mistake to think that the new CEO has no competitive spirit. He does; but unlike Ballmer, who was driven by sales, Nadella is driven by innovation and conquering technological challenges.
And that may be just what Microsoft needs.A first look at the Windows 10 universal app platformMicrosoft has been working on a new browser that they currently call Project Spartan. While the name has not been finalized, this new browser represents a break from Internet Explorer and has many new features too.
At Mobile World Congress today, Microsoft confirmed that Spartan will be included in the next preview release of Windows 10. Many were hoping that Microsoft would have released a build in February but alas, it is now March which means that the last release came in late January.
