    Here's an interesting question...since its painfully apparent that we can download the .iso, but keys are short..and the EULA states you can put it on as many machines as you want....would it be against rules/etiquette/ect to maybe start a thread of keys?

    3% complete here.

    Lets not go down that route just yet
    yes thats in the worst scenario where
    almost no one here gets a key....
    the EULA also states you cant share keys....

    A quick question to whoever may answer. Is this 32 bit Windows 7 EXACTLY the same as the previous 'leaked' 7000 build ?
    yes I checked and it's EXACTLY that one.

    And we are EXACTLY in the same position as we EXACTLY HAVE NO KEYS.

    This is the most horrible joke that Bill ever did to us.
    and I still have to have my dinner.

    It should already be there for you:

    Each version is available in five languages: Arabic*, English, German, Hindi*+(32-bit only), Japanese
    I meant a direct link to the ISO file ... cuz that page is already broken because the server is busy

    Thank you for your efforts     :)

    Some users wanting to get the Windows 7 beta from Microsoft Connect, MSDN, and TechNet have been having trouble getting the beta keys they need. The actual downloads are working fine, but users are unable to activate their beta copies. Microsoft has issued the following official statement on the problem:
    We've had some reports over the last few hours where customers have been receiving errors when requesting Windows 7 Beta product keys. We can confirm that we are having trouble distributing Windows 7 Beta product keys right now. Since Windows has a grace period built in before a product key is required, please don't hesitate to download and use the Beta without the product key.
    We will keep you posted and let you know when Microsoft fixes the issue.


    It looks like they were having problems yesterday as well!

    Right click and copy link and paste into a new window to download as otherwise the links will forward to Microsoft.com

    You can use this, but I do not know how you would get a product key number though.
