The official retail version will probably be out early 98.
However the beta versions are around if you don't mind a few
bugs like netwrok drivers not working (you can get around
this by using win95 drivers though), directx 5 not working
at all for some games (like need for speed - but you can
copy all the direct x 3 dlls from the game cd over the top
of the directx 5 ones to fix this).  Microsoft might give
you it if you ask them nicely - or you could become an
unofficial beta tester like me!!!!
