Is Windows 7 Beta permanent? -

well, ive heard from a bunch of friends that they ve all downloaded the windows 7 Beta on the internet, but i would like to know that if i download it, will it completely remove windows vista, and give me Windows 7, or is it basically just a trial?

DO NOT overwrite Vista as you will not be able to roll back. Windows 7 is awesome and I have been using it since Build 6801 thru 6956 and now 7000 Beta 1 which I am working with at the moment. I know its tempting but I suggest installing it on a spare Hard Drive if you have one lying around. As long as the Drive is no less than 40gb then you will be able to enjoy Windows like it has never been before. Also bear in mind Windows 7 Beta 1 comes with an initial 30day trial period, however you can rearm to extend the trial period http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/11/06... LUG.

It is beta software...it expires in August. When you download it, you will download an ISO image that you need to burn to a DVD. You can then boot to that DVD to install it. If you already have an OS installed, it should install as a dual boot OS.

It s a beta it s feature incomplete and no it s not permanent the beta code has an expiration date.

It quot;expiresquot; on August 1st, so it s basically a trial... though in actualality it s a BETA.
