Well, well Mr. Microsoft. We meet again.
It would seem that Microsoft realized how badly they erred in their severe underestimating of the quantity of users wanting to download the Windows 7 Beta, and are actually doing something that shows they aren't all idiots.
We have clearly heard that many of you want to check out the Windows 7 Beta and, as a result, we have decided remove the initial 2.5 million limit on the public beta for the next two weeks (thru January 24th). During that time you will have access to the beta even if the download number exceeds the 2.5 million unit limit.
So they heard the outcry and are extending the beta for 2 extra weeks. Smart move, Microsoft, smart move.
Grab your license key while you still can, and my recommendation for downloading the Beta is find a torrent release of it, then use your license key to unlock it.
Yes, I'm condoning P2P and Torrents for a change. Purely because this is a totally legal and MUCH faster means of getting the download.
