In general, beta products expire at the earlier event of either 180 days or
the release of the final version of the product.

Although it doesn't say, I believe it's 180 days, which is thereabouts 6
months.

here's a simple answer to the question

press the windows key +r
type in WinVer and press enter
a window will pop up telling you what version of Vista you have build number
and the date the software will expire.

easy!

I think Zack was referring to Office 2007, not Windows Vista.
