Maybe this site will post a bit of news when it becomes available so we can sign up.

People, sign up now at connect.microsoft.com because they might filter out the people that signed up after Windows 7 became available for download, just to prevent the large masses that are signing up just so that they can get a copy of Windows 7.

I cant find anything. I live in sweden, do you think they havent published it there then? :O i rly want to participate.

i want the windows

Im with the I want the windows crowd

Its cheat to use multiple emails. Don’t do that! It keeps other honest people from getting a chance@

it seems to be real for student to belive that computer softwear will raise suddenly with shot period

This is a very misleading article; with the title ‘How To Download Windows 7 Beta’ especially when you guys write in the article when it will be available for testing and when applications will be accepted. I suggest you either create the article a week or so in advance, not a month, with the title making it more misleading where people assume it is available for download already, this is not a very good move.

I agree with Scottysoft, this article is very misleading. I got really excited only to be disappointed. Can we trust this site to give us the best information?

well, it is the only way to get to download windows 7 legally, and according to the article, it’s important to register for the beta program early to get accepted by MS

I have contacted Microsoft about beta testing 7. Here’s what I got:
‘We appreciate your interest in the new program. For the “significantâ€? betas, beta testers are often bound by NDA. Many have been working with the program groups for years. The Windows and Office betas are the most difficult to gain access to as those teams already have a full complement of trusted beta testers and are not accepting applicants. At some point in the future there will likely be a public beta of Windows 7 which may or may not reside on Microsoft Connect. Public betas often move to the main http://www.Microsoft.com site. At this time, I am not aware of a projected date for the release of a public Windows 7 beta.’

Windows 7 Coming Sooner Than Expected?
…Some rumors emerged the other day which basically suggested that it could very well be possible for a Windows 7 release in mid 2009 according to a new article posted at Internet News which mentioned that an internal Microsoft calendar listed June 3, 2009 as the planned release date of Windows 7 which would just [...]

how can i do for testing this beta version and “obtain a copy of Windows 7 for you to download, with your own license key”

thx

just go to http://connect.microsoft.com

thanka

This really wasn’t that helpful…..

great article on windows vienna

‘great article on windows vienna’ How is this a great article; it’s full of misleading information that does not help anybody at all.

Hi Guys and Gals, if your new to Microsoft Connect, you might want to know how it works and what it used for.
MS Connect is a website that connects users to Microsoft services, and is split into three:
Benefits – Here you can subscribe to a Microsoft service and get special benefits, one of which I use is the Visual Studio Registration Benefits.
Community – The site has forums for each MS Connect service based discussion lines, so you can discuss for / with that specific service.
Services – This is what the site is really about, when you subscribe to the services, you get beneficial, community, and service based services for that type.
I’ve searched for Windows 7 on the site, the search engine on it isn’t too good, but the Connection Directory for ‘Windows’, is where it might be listed there if it ever will be, but no, it is not currently, by what I can kind, the nearest thing I can find to Windows 7 Beta is the illegal copy of Explorer.exe in Win32 Vista of Windows 7 M1 (without MinWin) on BTJunkie.
I asked MS if they were going to post it on here, but Beta will only be available for developers on MSDN subscriptions so they design their applications ready for Windows 7′s final release.

Microsoft is bull shit

It sucks the blood of the poor pple in developing countries

go linux

BOSS, you are mental idiot. Microsoft doesn’t ‘It sucks the blood of the poor pple in developing countries.’ Nearly all it’s workers and products are US. Why are you on a forum about Microsoft if you are so anti-progress.

Great article – signed up on the dite and am now participating. Thx for heads up

Will it be as bad as vista?

cant wait

@James`: yes, they all start out looking like the previous OS, Vista originally looked like Win2k. (I know i was on the feedback team for Vista).

@BOSS: is that so, than why haven’t the world converted over to linux yet?

It is so nice, I want to test Window 7 too.

me too but i can’t arrived
what can i do ???

How I wish I could test Windows 7 Beta for Microsoft for free.

I wonder if they will let previous non-testers to get in the boat.

thanks a lot

I just requested to be a beta tester for Windows 7 here –> https://connect.microsoft.com/Connect/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=371972. Better get in while you still can. It is only a request to add, nothing more.

The design of “subscribe me to future replies” sucks.

when we download xp to vienna converter

Wow – after the download and build mode – which is awkward, it’s not a bad OS – the location of some features is better than Vista, I love being a beta tester!!!!
