I was a beta tester for MS with Vista and am doing the same with Windows 7 to get another free copy of 7 or perhaps Vista. Plus it helps to get the bugs out of this operating system before it is released to the general public.
Why are you testing Win 7?

For me I tried Vista and if I uninstalled a program and wanted to reinstall it, it seemed to always end in failure. File access errors. I know of at least two major programs that I just could not uninstall completely and had to download the microsoft uninstall tool to remove them. With Windows 7, I can uninstall and reinstall at will, kind of like XP used to be. So I'm looking to get RC 1 and try the 64 bit version.

Im not testing it... Im using it as my main OS!
The only problem I have had is with the mic (which I think its because of the damn crappy creative drivers), 64bit wlan encryption, and 2 user logged in at the same time.
Everything else works perfect :)
My games and apps run better than ever.
Im still on the 7000 build

Curiosity mostly but the gift of Office Ultimate in the Feedback panel program is also an incentive.

A while back MS offered a fixed number of people a free dvd of either vista ultimate or office 2007 for allowing them to collect extra info from their comps for a certain period of time. You had to send an email and then they got back to you if selected. There's an old thread around about it, but I can't find it at the moment.

Same here, I want a head start on the new OS, and I have been using it since Oct of 08, and will continue to use it until Windows 8.
