Mine Doesn’t Look Any Different…

So the big question is – I just installed the Pre-Beta and it doesn’t look any different. There are some slight changes to the X to close applications, fonts have been updated, color scheme is slightly different; but it’s the same launcher, not the new one on the site.
@Jolicloud’s tweet hints that by the end of the week everyone will get the new look via regular updates:
“To all our alpha users, you will be able to upgrade to the pre-beta by the end of the week. No need to reinstall, just update as usual.”
So that about sums it up. As soon as the updates are released, we’ll have screen shots and a full review for you to take in.
Updates:
Here’s the latest group of Tweets from @Jolicloud on what to do/wait for:
“Let us recap todays announcements : new website, jolicloud express, public prebeta, new theme, fast boot on selected netbooks”
and
“Pre-beta propose also GMA500 support out of the box and HD720P. All alpha user will be upgraded automatically no need to reinstall”
and
“Jolicloud Express runs on windows XP and 7 and keep Windows and your files safe. If you have issues during installation send us feedback“
and
“next milestone, final beta with HTML5, recycle, activity stream. We will keep you updated as always
thanks for today support !“
So we’re going to have to wait for Beta before the new main menu (with HTML5 support).
