Windows 7 Beta?

MSDN Newsletters aren't being an MSDN Subscriber. That means paying however much it is now to become an MSDN Subscriber.

There is no set date for the first official public Beta. I believe it's sometime in January but I am not positive. Vista Beta 1 changed for months before it was finalized.

There is always a way to obtain these copies. You can probably guess where, but I'm not going to link to them.

To be honest, just wait until a public Beta is out, and then have your fun with it.

Edit: You can apply for Beta 1 I believe, but not at this time. But I don't think anyone who applies actually recieves the Beta. I applied for Beta 1 of Vista two years ago, and ended up just getting the public Beta.

I'm not sure if it's against the rules, but if you really do want a copy of Build 6801, I could most likely mail you one if you paid for postage..

If that's against site rules then please just edit it, don't just ban me over that.

Google...

I'd have it running via Bootcamp... But I'm out of DVDs.

That's the latest site I saw. Again, that is just speculation, but that's still something, right?

BTW, you're from Canadia. I call it that. I love you. Rep!

Haha, I live in Texas.

I've never been to Canada. I love it there though despite never seeing it with my own eyes. I've always been extremely fond of Calgary.

But to answer your question.. it's about to rain! :/ I hate rain.

I definitely am hoping to take a trip there sometime next year. It's one of my biggest priorities. Haha, maybe by that time the official Beta 1 will be out of W7!

Hey guys, quick question: what's the minimum hard drive space to install Windows 7? Because right now I can only make a 10GB partition, and I bet it'll demand I give it at least 15GBs.

As of right now, it's so similar to Vista, I think you can just go by the Vista system specs. I don't think there is an actual release yet though.
