As we arrived @ PDC the streets were somewhat familiar but somehow different as if the trash had changed but the streets remained the same. We immediately proceeded to check in to obtain our badges, we are given 3 coupons, along with our badges. The first coupon was for a t-shirt, the second was for the bag, and the third for "the goods". So down to Kentia hall we went to obtain our "comeups". As we handed over our coupons we’re informed that "the goods" would not be given to us until Tuesday, In the bag was the universal studios party wristband, a foam channel 9 guy, and a whole plethora of magazines and some software. Feeling relieved as to know that the goods will arrive on Tuesday yet still having a sort of let down, we continued on to the rest of the convention areas. We saw the gaming room and they we’re playing FarCry64 a good game but still not anything new or exciting. Most of the exhibits we’re closed awaiting the arrival of all the attendees. In what was indeed a ghost town of a PDC, what happened next was something phenomenal in proportion, but let’s just say Build 5219.winmain_idx02.050824-2010 has NOT been released to attendees yet!! But we’re here to give you a sneak preview, it is not a complete in depth analysis, but just a give you an idea of the new features, apps, and the "feel" of the OS and remember this is just the first day of PDC so ZoRoNaX, Gnome, Jockester, and I WinMonKey...
