Microsoft Postpones Windows 7 Beta Release

Microsoft has delayed the release of the first public beta of Windows 7 due to heavy traffic, and is working on putting more network infrastructure in place to support demand, according to a Friday afternoon post to The Windows Blog.

Brandon LeBlanc, a communications manager on the Windows Client Communications Team, said Microsoft is delighted by the overwhelming interest and will post an update to the blog once the additional capacity has been added and Windows 7 Beta 1 is ready for public downloads.

"We want to ensure customers have the best possible experience when downloading the beta, and I'll be posting here again soon once the beta goes live," LeBlanc wrote.

Some eager Windows 7 beta testers expressed their dismay in the comments section of the blog post.

"I've been trying to download all day, and all I got was 'server busy'," wrote one poster. "Logistically speaking, [BitTorrent] would have been a life saver here," wrote another poster.

On Wednesday evening at the Consumer Electronics Show, Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer announced the Friday launch date for Windows 7 Beta 1 and called Windows 7 "the best version of Windows ever."

Windows 7 will be more reliable than previous versions of Windows, and will boot faster and have longer battery life, Ballmer told CES attendees. At CES, the buzz around Windows 7 was strong, based on snippets of conversation heard in the hallways and conference rooms during the event.

Microsoft's TechNet and MSDN testers were able to download the Windows 7 beta on Wednesday. According to the CRN Test Center, Windows XP users cannot upgrade directly to the Windows 7 Beta, although they can upgrade from Vista systems with Service Pack 1 installed.

Microsoft says it has yet to make a final decision on what will or won't be included in the generally available version of Windows 7, but advises only clean installations of operating systems during the beta phase in any event.

Kolega je vec postavio link ali evo i ovo, nece da se baci.

treba da skidam 20h...inace treba da skinem 64bitni...

Je l' moze neko ko je skinuo i instalirao ukratko da kaze koliki  je trial period koriscenja ovog windowsa, negde sam procitao da je 30 dana a negde 90 dana, da li je prilikom instalacije potreban CD key (i kako ga najlakse dobiti) i da li se instalira na isti nacin kao i XP (sa butabilnog diska) ? Hvala.

Trial period traje 30 dana.Međutim ja imam a i imas svuda po netu da nađeš krek tj. aktivacione programe gde te posle pokretanja više ne pita za aktivaciju , a takođe ima  i program za uklanjanje watermarka iz donjeg desnog ugla.
probao sam ga . os je savrsen - ali nije za moju konfiguraciju.    ne treba cd key.instalacija je kao kod viste.

trial traje do prvog avgusta ako imas kljuc.
A sam kljuc je isto free.

E pa ako traje do avgusta onda se isplati instalirati, ovako rekoh da se ne cimam za samo 30 dana. Koji je najkraci nacin za dobijanje tog ''free'' kljuca? Pokusavao sam nesto preko oficijelnog sajta microsoft ali ne mogu da se snadjem tj. cesto pokazuje zagusenje na sajtu...Da li se mogu iskoristiti vec postojeci kljucevi koji se mogu naci na netu ili moras da nabavis ''legalan'' kljuc, kao i da li prilikom instalacije sistem trazi bilo kakvu aktivaciju i slicno koja je ''online''? Hvala unapred.

prilikom instalacije ne trazi aktivaciju.
postojeci kljucevi ne rade. postoje neki crackovi ali ko zna sta od toga radi a sta ne.

sto se tice servera na sajtu koji izgleda stvarno ne rade evo nesto sa windows 7 bloga:

Windows 7 Team Blog
Here’s where we stand

I know many of you have had issues with the Windows 7 Beta site over the last 24 hours. As you may have noticed the download site has been up and running smoothly since this morning. That said, we apologize for the inconvenience that it caused some of you. 

Due to an enormous surge in demand, the download experience was not ideal so we listened and took the necessary steps to ensure a good experience. 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.

Thank you for your enthusiasm, interest and willingness to beta test. It has been great to see the positive early reviews and feedback. As you know, this is a beta product. We are working hard to get Windows 7 ready and right. Your input is a critical part of that process. Thank you!

kakva konfiguracija mora da bude,da ne skidam bezveze?
