Windows 7 Beta Download – Unlimited for 2 Weeks

It looks like Microsoft really screwed up.  After promising to give away free downloads of Windows 7 Beta, the demand woud up being SO huge that their servers couldn't handle the load, resulting in a PR disaster.

Well, fear not. Microsoft’s Brandon LeBlanc writes on the Windows 7 blog:

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.

Great. Now if only they would just nuke Windows Vista.
