As far as I can gather, due to B&Os marketing ploy, Beolounge has been set to 40%, then you get an email or snail mail invite to your store.
40% and up is then achieved by seeing products in the flesh.
This is why I quit on the first day.

I don't need a Kirby vacuum cleaner!

I'm stuck at 43% - did the tour (twice) with both people - Apple i Mac: no probelms.

Yes i have.

Maybe they will add new contents so the max is 40% now...

It seems to me the %age is not very accurate...

Have you watched all the movies? Read all the magazines? Registered you products?

I "walked" all around the BeoLounge, in every room with both the lady and the man but i'm always at 39%.

Do you know why ?

Is there anybody who reached the 100% ?

After the first days speed has improved for me with Beolounge and has grown on me. It's more like a virtual shop visit with all those little details that you can learn. Today I have received the monthly B&O newsletter which had a link to Beolounge (pointing to an article in the Magazine that is located on the first floor of the lounge) in it. When I left the magazine, the store manager was showing up saying "I did not see you enter...", I thought that was clever and funny

Cheers,
Frank

You need to enter the house...

You will be proposed to register for the lounge (and get the trip).

With the Beo5 you can navigate to the BS5 room.

Does anyone have an idea where I can log into that New York trip thingy, or access the BeoSound 5 "simulator" for that matter? I tried clicking on both of those wallpapers that hang outside the store, but they are not working with me...

So, we've gone from serious discussion to shooting up the BeoLounge with an Uzi to nailing your head to a table.. typical BeoWorld thread then!

Now, if B&O had a sense of humour, a table, with a hammer and a long nail on it, would appear in one of the rooms

IE 8 crashes for me as soon as the store manager is done talking every time, not a great start.

I used my existing password and it worked first time!

Why are you running IE8? As far as I know it is little more than a Beta so you would expect problems.

I am running Vista Home Premium on a HP Core 2 Duo laptop and it all works perfectly. Boring but perfectly boring!

Stick with Microsoft, don't try to be too clever or paddle against the current and everything works.

Hello All,

Did you get your old community uid and pwd to work for the BeoLounge? or did it require you to register again?

I think they should have made it more like Second Life. That way the Beofans could all go there and interact with each other....

They could have even incorporated a questions room and maybe 'looking for' room or 'selling' room.

Not that I don't like what they have but it's not really a replacement for the old forum. There is no forum.

Don't blame Beo for that, blame Microsoft.

I believe IE is to crash from 0.01 sec from double-click of it's icon, to max 30 minutes.

I'll only take the Uzi if I can have the endless movie magazines as well, otherwise I'd rather have a semi-auto 12 gauge shotgun

If these were the good old days, someone would've made a Beolounge Doom WAD already
