Hey darkassain,
I want a better Beta too
Pre-Beta M3 bits Time-bombed

Regardless of the Key activation, the time-bomb is supposed to stop the pre-beta working in Jan. If no beta then, well, we'll need to find a way to defuse it to continue to use the pre-beta until the beta arrives. (There are alleged to be workarounds available)

There is no way MS will leave everybody without a working copy of Windows 7, they have managed to create a good buzz with the m3 build and all this would stop if it bombs before another build is available.

yes z3r010
i agree
i could just imagine the uproar about how ms let them down....lol
they cant fall this early in the game...
or its "game over" (sorry was playing n64..lol) or a least it will be a "shame on u"
for giving all the ones who experience 7 and raved about it a cold shoulder...

Makes a heck of a lot of hence for a number of reasons...Not just security wise, but it would help prevent people filing bugs for issues that have been since corrected.

I've never experienced a time-bombing of a system...what happens? Does it just stop working completely or can one retrieve stuff to back up if needed?

I guess we are all going find out at the same time if there is nothing else forthcoming.

LOL...I guess you're right! I read somewhere that it's like trying to use Windows without activating, it goes into a "diminished" mode...whatever that means.
