And no this has nothing to do with pirating I downloaded and burned the public trial of Vista Beta two back a while ago when thrillkill posted a link to it. I have since gotten rid of it, i swap os's around a lot. I find myself wanting to try it again, but i broke my own rule and didnt right down the key!! is there anyway to find this, is it the same for all the betas? or am i screwed on this one?

Anyways Ill be curious to see whether or not you can stil activate--I seem to remeber them shutting it off or something. But if its still it up I may have to do a reinstall as well.

Legally I dont think you're going to be able to. They may open up the release canidate for the general public/ppl who didnt get in before but thats a ways off.

If you have a decent connection I can send you my download of the 32bit version. Its not illegal to give you a copy seeing as it was free anyway, I've also got a spare CD key thinking about it. PM me!

Microsoft had an allotted amount of vista beta download or hard copy(which I received).But the number is passed and no more beta copies distributed.Jo

RC1 is very close. probably a month or less. as they are still shooting for jan 07 release date.

I would imagine we will have it soon.
cause the beta 2 while nice, needed the refinement that RC1 is supposed to bring.
