Microsoft earlier had announced the availability of Windows 7 till January 24th . However, the date is now extended and Windows 7 download will now be available till 10th February 2009. Its amazing to see the kind of enthusiasm and excitement for downloading and testing Windows 7 and certainly Microsoft would not want anyone to miss out this opportunity of testing and helping them fix Windows 7 which certainly in my opinion is far far better than its predecessor Windows Vista.
In a blogpost, Microsoft says
The shutdown of general availability for the Windows 7 Beta will occur in 3 phases over the course of the next few weeks:
- Starting January 27th, the Windows 7 page will be updated with a warning that time is running out on downloading the Windows 7 Beta and that we will be limiting downloads shortly. People will be encouraged to register and start the download of the Windows 7 Beta sooner rather than later.
- February 10th, new downloads of the Windows 7 Beta will no longer be available. People who have already started their Windows 7 Beta download and have not yet finished will still be able to finish their download and are encouraged to do so.
- February 12th, people will no longer be able to complete their download of the Windows 7 Beta. Anyone who hasn’t finished downloading the Windows 7 Beta will be unable to do so.
