anyone know if the windows ecosystem readiness program will get free copy as well?

Now i cant remember whether i used an Invitation key or not to get to Connect.
and if anyone here got an invite to test the 7 beta please Check if you can see a "Newsgroup" In "Ecosystem Home page" on connect please ?

You would know if you got an invitation to beta test!

I, too am on the ecosystem program via connect and don't see anything. I guess that we all have to wait and see on Monday, August 3 according to Paul.

As stated before it is only if you have received AN INVITATION to be a beta tester for WINDOWS 7, no other piddly little beta testing will do.

You will not be getting any Windows 7 for free, make peace with it.

IOW suck it up!

I'm not too ticked about this. I have other ways of getting discounts, heheheh...

Still, it would be nice if all testers got a free copy. We helped test Windows 7 too!

OMG OMG .. I will get a free copy =) =) =) Thumbs upp for MICROSOFT !!

Got this from Technet :
If you have access to the private newsgroups mentioned in the Windows Team Blog, then you are eligible. If you are not aware of the newsgroups or have no access, you are not eligible.
