My problem with the BETA process is that it is in no way intuitively obvious as to how to install it. I have put this on the reflector before and got pu-pawed,
I have Windows Vista. It is Pain in the A… to install the new betas. You CAN NOT click and download the file. PERIOD. You MUST follow a specific procedure just to even see the zip file (because for some unknown reason it is in a FTP folder. That means you have to openthe folder in a separate window/tab, etc. etc. etc. and do it CORECTLY. Why can’t the beta file be placed as an icon/link? Why can’t the K3Utility have a special tab for BETA releases? And there are many other ways this process could be improved. My 2 cents.
