Re: Windows 7 (formerly known as Blackcomb and Vienna)
The Beta was only up for about 15 minutes and then MicroShifty took itdown; supposedly to add more servers, but I heard that the Beta was only
supposed to be put out to those who had top-level subscriptions to the
TechNet system.
Somebody SCREWED us!

Re: Windows 7 (formerly known as Blackcomb and Vienna)
Oh, c'mon... I downloaded the beta yesterday at around 1400 eastern. Fromthe public site. You seem pretty impatient for someone who confers the
nickname 'MicroShifty" on a company from which you want to download free
software. Yah, you were screwed royally. Totally, dude.

many other companies, and that doesn't make them any more special.
Mozilla, Opera, Canonical, Red Hat, Novell and others are examples
Nevertheless, saying "MicroShifty" is kind of unpolite, I agree.
