Windows 7 Beta (Premium or Ultimate)

Post by MOJORyder »

OK, most of you have heard of the "generic" windows 7 beta being offered out there... but MS today sent me 5 CD keys for the Premium ( and now also, the Ultimate) Windows 7 Beta (which, obviously, is the full tilt version).

Sooo, minus one for me, leaves 4 Keys for me to give away to anyone who is either tired of Vista (which, imho, has been unfairly destroyed by the Google/Linus/firefox nerds out there) or are just interested in truly Beta testing Windows 7 in it's full guise.

Some requirements.
First, you must promise to never kill me in game again..

ok...ignore that..

requirements:

P4
DVD Player

recommended you back up everything important!!!! (cannot stress this enough!)

These keys will never expire. You can, theorhetically have Win7B.x forever, even after it reaches RC3+, there just won't be updates for "most" of us who Beta it after it is released...so you;ll either go back to your usual Win version...upgrade to the release candidate (generally at 50% off since you helped MS) or stick with Beta Vs whatever.

System requirements are pretty low (I have a p4 1.6 with 512RDRam and a GForce FX5200 Vid card and it ran vista beta fine and is qualified for Win7B beta.

As much fun as loading a security nightmare of an OS on my PC sounds, ill pass for now but thanks for the offer. Ill stick with my XP until this machine dies and i am forced to upgrade. Remember: this is the same microsoft that forgot to program the zune to handle a simple date, im sure they left a lot of critical things out of this beta (understandably) and i dont really want to find out the hard way what they are. On the other hand, apparently macs will give you aids (if u dont get the reference, well, i dk what to tell u). Im sure you will find willing test subjects though Mojo.

I downloaded windows 7 and installed it on my laptop, I upgraded it from vista premium.. I had installed it on my desktop which also runs vista and just did a dual boot with Win 7 installed on it also.. I tried to play DC on my vista but got some unknown punk buster error and got kicked. I decided to delete Win 7 from my Desktop which i primarily use for gaming but have left windows 7 on my laptop and will ride it out till august.

uhh...well OK Babies. lol

Ever coded? Everyone makes coding errors. In all actuality the Leap year issue is the most commonly overlooked coding item there is. If there is going to be a major bug from any manufacturer, chances are, it will be the Leap Year problem.

Shit happens

regardless..

this is the premium, not the generic, so it will have all the bells and whistles (think top of the line Vista -or- XP), not the basic as the rest of the world is getting.
Also, Microsoft is trying to remake Vista (7 is nothing more than Vista SP2) from the Linux/Google/FireFox tards who essentially disabled Vista for reasons of nothing more than Bias and ignorance.

that whole vista experiment should suffice as an excellent example and evidence of such.

anyways, thanks for your input of not going to download it... I uhh...think?

OK guys... I am going to be grabbing my DVD's to begin buring these copies for you all and mailing them out (hopefully) sometime this week.

Need to know:

1) 32 or 64 bit
2) Mailing address
3) Do you want Home Premium or Ultimate?

Keep in mind for those who are now wanting the Premium Windows 7 that I have limited amount of DVD's to burn these on.. it takes uhh, 5 or 8 per copy of Win7 (If you want all languages), so if I have to say no to some, I apologize in advance.

So PM me your info (above) and I will be getting these out soon.
