    It means it's not a final version of windows7, it's for evaluation and testing purposes.

    With Vista i believe that running a beta copy of the Service pack SP2 did put this message on the desktop - If this is the case you can remove it by uninstalling the Beta SP2 and installing the release version which is now available
