BizTalk Server 2006 beta 2

Microsoft got around to enabling my beta account and I got access to the download links to bizTalk. I must admit I was shocked to see HIPPA and Swift componets. They also have the providers for connections with ASP.NET 2.0 to bizTalk. I only ran into one issue as Windows 2003 doesnt like it and firefox doesnt support the ActiveX control you need to download files from Microsoft. If you have ever used MSDN or beta.microsoft, you know what I mean. I had to find a spare machine with XP just to download it. I plan to use bizTalk in our commerce application that will have disconnected transfers of money. I think this would prob be a good use for bizTalk as a contract I worked on used bizTalk to apply updates to account bank holdings. I will most likly post updates on BizTalk on my dev blog as Ill be deploying it on a solution for Anant Systmes.
