Windows 7 Beta is Now Public!
Microsoft Corporation declared the release of the new operating system Microsoft Windows 7 Beta to public testers today.
Brandon LeBlanc, one of The Windows Team Blogs team stated that:
“On January 9th, the Windows 7 Beta will be available for Windows enthusiasts to download via the Windows 7 page on Windows.com. The Windows 7 Beta is going to be available download-only (we’re not sending out physical media) and available for a limited time to the first 2.5 million people who download the beta.
The Windows 7 Beta will be available in English, German, Japanese, Arabic, and Hindi, and each language will be available in 32-bit and 64-bit versions (except Hindi which will only be available in 32-bit). “
Other sources from Microsoft Partners website declared the exact time when the link will get published to public as:
“Partners with a MSDN or TechNet subscription can download Windows 7 Beta now. All other partners can download Windows 7 Beta starting January 9, 2009 at 12:00 P.M. Pacific Time. “
Once it became 12 PM, people could be able to access the following link to sign up for the product and receive product keys, when you choose your preferred version (86 or 64) and language and hit the continue (>) button, you will get “Server is too busy” page and won’t be able to proceed with sign-up process.
Few minutes later (12:40), links were soon removed and visitors only get: Windows® 7 Beta coming soon!
If you’re interested in downloading Windows 7 and were lucky to get in, here’s the link: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/dd353205.aspx
I hope that Microsoft would get links up again to let users enjoy the “Vista that users were looking forward to”.
