I'm off for vacation tomorrow morning and I'll be gone for a little bit. Anyone who wants to post news can do the following:
Go to the forums, and then select "Create News Item". If one of the moderators thinks it's good enough to be posted, it'll get posted (And mods who are reading this, please check the news area to see if there's hidden news items to be unhidden to be posted) 
It's been a crazy year and we wouldn't have it any other way.
Folks, I wish I could tell you more but we're in the calm before the storm. It's going to get very very exciting in the next several months as Windows Vista approaches. Okay, I have just one tiny sampling of what I'm talking about -- animated wallpapers.
But in the meantime, lots has to prepared behind the scenes for when Vista starts to heat up. Ooh, I just wish I could tell you all the stuff.
Anyway, after I get back from vacation, I'm heading to Redmond for a week. If there's anything you want to know about Windows Vista that you haven't heard about yet, just comment here and I'll add them to my list of things to talk about. Microsoft has some exciting things in store for users too.
So don't burn the place down and have fun. And don't forget to feel free to submit news to us so that this news item isn't hanging around for two weeks. IF it is staying around for two weeks, we all stink.
