- - whats a beta? (https://www.gnutellaforums.com/general-windows-support/26941-whats-beta.html)

that might be a stupid question but i have no clue what it is
:confused:

tiffer89,

A "beta" is a version of a program that has not been "oficially" released and may contain bugs and errors. It also is usually more advanced then the general release of a program and will contain new features not available in the released edition.

If you are fairly computer literate you might enjoy testing a Beta version of a program. It gives you a jump on what is to come.

Most beta versions work without a hitch but you should be ready to encounter some issues and be ready to troubleshoot them.

All that said I have found Limewire beta releases to be exceptional. Very few issues.

I hope that helps you.

tiffer89 that wasn't stupid even i didn't know that, I just thought that it was a better version.

stupididiot69er why did you have to tell him that 3 weeks later (Norm already told him!)?

I should probably read the dates, and not comment on old things like that (i was just trying to make the person feel welcome...three weeks later... srry)
