Yeah the time wouldn't be connected to time.windows.com or w/e so the beta would still work.

Brutuz,

Unfortunately, you cannot upgrade from Windows 7 Beta (7000) to Windows 7 RC (7100). You will need to perform a clean install or use the recovery cd / partition that came with your system to wipe it and return it to its original factory state. If you choose to download the RC, please be sure to download it before August 15th as it will not be available after that date.

You were all told about this well in advance.

You were told not to use the beta as your main OS.

You have absolutely no "right" or reason to moan.
