Odyssey doesn't exist. Neptune is pretty easy to find.

Neptune = Windows 2001 beta. (At least that's what MS planned to do with it, they later used Whistler and made XP)

And since it's basicly Windows 2000 with some new add-ons, it's probably not legal.

The betas policy here is to treat it the same way as what it became/was derived from. That's why NT 5 Beta 1 got pulled, 2000 isn't ABW yet.

-Q

NT5 Beta isn't even close to Windows 2000. It's more or less NT4. There is really no differences besides IE Integration(4 I think), and a semi-updated kernel.

But it meets the qualifications as ABW.

Yeah, I told people on some forum how 96 is.... I don't remember too much about it now, but it was windows 95 A I think. Though it had some odd name for it's mail client.. I think it was called.. I dunno, but it began with a P. I didn't try the mail client. But the OS was definately a hacked up 95.
