Last Chance to Grab Vista Beta 2

By Jimmy Daniels

Microsoft will soon be pulling the download link for the latest beta of Windows Vista, beta 2, it is scheduled to end today.

In case you weren’t aware, we are only providing a limited number of copies of Windows Vista Beta 2 - either download or physical copies - and we’re fast approaching the cut-off point.

What this means is - if you want to get a copy, get it now (and I mean now). Visit www.microsoft.com/betaexperience/engb and either download or order. Because WE WILL BE WITHDRAWING ACCESS VERY SOON. Did I say that loudly enough?

Here are a few tips:

a) If you’re downloading, make sure you start the download today, even if you interrupt it. You’ll be able to continue your download after the cut-off happens (at least until July 14th, when even that facility will be withdrawn).

b) Make sure you get your product key

c) When you’ve installed it, make sure you activate. We may be able to provide people who have activated copies with future…stuff. I’m being vague because I need to be, just trust me and make sure you activate. Source: Ian Moulster’s blog

We Say: The clock is apparently ticking, start downloading now if you want to make sure you get it.
