They've just taken down the "Download Windows 7 Beta Now" paragraph from Technet Plus's home page....so there is life there. Now if they would just put up the paragraph we all want to see.....well I'll let you guess what that is.

I can still download the 7000 builds at connect presently for the good that would do. But there's some other indication you might want a look at.

"I've heard May 5th, but I'm guessing sometime between May 11 - 15th - when Microsoft will be having their annual Tech Ed shindig in Los Angeles. It would tend to make sense - given Microsoft released the M3 pre Beta build at the PDC in October and the Beta during CES in January. Tech Ed would give them a good platform to show it all off and announce the RC's release." unspecified source
