Windows 7 Beta Release Jan 9th worldwide
When it releases, you can get the Windows 7 Beta at this link. There have been rumors that the Windows 7 Beta will release early January 2009, and the biggest confirmation of that was a member at neowin finding a link to the Beta on the official Windows 7 page. The link didn’t work – however, it definitely indicates we’ll be seeing the Beta sooner rather than later. Highest probability is right after Steve Ballmer’s appearance at CES on Jan 7th, 2009.
Here is what the official Windows 7 site says about what’s coming in the Windows 7 Beta -
Great ideas are often simple and clear. Here’s ours: We’re making Windows 7 for you. This means we’re:
- Tailoring it for laptops
- Making it work the way you do
- Designing it for web services
- Building it for entertainment
- Engineering it to be easy to own and manage
I’m definitely going to be running the beta – I downloaded a leaked build and have been a bit reluctant to install it since it might have viruses or other bad stuff in there. However, an official beta getting released would be awesome.
