I have a product key for windows 7 beta...however i dont wish to download now...? -

Since microsoft is only allowing 2.5 million keys, and i have one now. Can i download the software at a later date, even if all the keys are gone?

I would imagine you could use it any time, once you have it nobody else can use it.

I doubt they ll remove it from the servers once the keys are gone, to allow people to ddownload later. Even if so, there will probably be alternatie sources (like BitTorrent, which already has a copy circulating anyway). Just remember, the beta keys are only valid through August or so... but if you mean wait until next week or so, there hsouldn t be any problem finding the download.

Don t forget the planned expiration date for the beta is 08/01/09 at this time. You will need to get it before that time, but I imagine the key is good until that time.

Probably.
