Wonder all you like...or not. I was enough of a "contributor" to

Windoze beta tester for many years and iterations, starting with the

Lying again.......


No, he might have gone to a conference.... like everyone else but I
doubt it cause he lied that time about getting the upgrade three weeks
before the real release...


It isn't surprising that you apparently think the only way to become a
Microsoft beta tester was to attend a conference. There were and I
presume still are many ways and within beta testing, there were groups
testing different aspects of distros and sometimes at difference times.

The "real release." What a laugh that is.



I think Scott sometimes has difficulty accepting anything that is
outside of his personal sphere of knowledge or experience. He seems to
think that riding a 850+ lb Harley UltraClassic or Honda Goldwing is
the same as riding a modern cafe' racer or dirt bike. We slow down to
take sharp turns and corners. :-)



And you seeem to read things the way you want to see to it you have an
arguement... If you read my posts, I acutally posted last night after
some research that you guys are probably right... But of course if you
acknowledge that post, you can't troll and feel all superior..



No offense Scott but I stopped thoroughly reading your posts on this
subject after about the 5th or 6th one that just kept repeating the same
thing. Your riding and styles don't apply to everyone. I don't steer a
bike with the back tire, nor do I go airborne, pull wheelies or am
focused on saving a tenth of a second through a turn. The discussion
basically started with a comment about counter-steering in very general
terms.



OK, I get it but still... You don't counter steer your bike through a
corner... You may bump the opposite side to get that little sway street
bikes like... But like us, you could simply start to lean to the turn
and the front end would follow. I am the one who has crossed over here
and "learned" by reading.. I see why you do it, I "feel" the motion
cause I have been there before, but still.. You on your street bike, and
me on my MX bike, can make a left turn without ever "pushing" the left
bar forward of the right bar....
