  • i don't understand why windows 7 beta is free...

    why is it free? is it for a limited time? does it expire? is it a trial offer? come on its microsoft and there's no way they'd let people download anything for FREE...

    O_o please someone explain...

  • It is free and expires 1 May 2010 afaik. This makes perfectly sense because Microsoft makes most of its money from OEM and business sales and OEMs and businesses of course don't distribute or use an OS that is beta.

    But they get the beta for free in order to test it out, ensure compatibility with their upcoming systems and current environments so that, at the time the final version is released, there's (in the best case) no problems with migrating to the new OS.

  • Moreover, distributing the beta for free means more people downloading and testing it and thus more bugs can be found and fixed.

  • My parents say if my bro breaks my computer, they'll get me a new one.... HURRY UP ALREADY!

  • Windows 7 is like Windows Xp for its time: MS getting it right. At least relative to Windows as we've come to know it.

    Vista was a flop, simply because it came out of the gate with 64-bit driver issues, is a memory hog, and many computers and especially laptops selling with Vista didn't have the memory to run it well.

    Windows 7 is still the Vista core, but it's compatibility management and lower "LOOK! GRAPHICS!" factor make it quicker. I like it. Should be a free update for Vista owners.

  • i know it is unimportant but the RTM start button is fucking hideous

  • Hey! Well, I'm using Vista, I have an issue and I was wondering if you knew how to solve it... Do u know what to do so your WMV files shows the first frame from the video in the icon? I'd be so much easier for me to work with them because I'm making a movie atm.

    Thanks!
