Hmmm. That sounds a little dubious. MS could have created one super-bloated OS just to brag that the new OS is only "normal-bloated". Kind of like "New Coke".

Thanks I am downloading it now!

Do you have to go somewhere and generate a key code for it?

If I don't get to it in time, install without key. You will be able to use it for 30 days without one.

Windows 7 registration hasn't gone live yet, it will be available on this website (I'll let you know when):

http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7/

I will post instructions on how to activate Windows 7 with your freshly obtained key (if you installed already without a product key).

Microsoft Corp. postponed the roll-out of the Windows 7 beta Friday, citing "very heavy traffic" on its Web site.

The company did not offer a new schedule for delivering the beta of its newest operating system.

"Due to very heavy traffic we're seeing as a result of interest in the Windows 7 Beta, we are adding some additional infrastructure support to Microsoft.com properties before we post the public Beta today," a spokeswoman said in an instant message reply to earlier questions about the Microsoft.com's performance. "We want to ensure customers have the best possible experience when downloading the Beta."
But, it's still on the server. Just use the links I provided and you're all set.

Once the public beta officially goes live, then you can register for a key. But don't let that keep you from downloading and installing the beta.

I will post instructions on how to activate Windows 7 with your registered product key for those that install the beta today. This will allow you to have full functionality of Windows 7 until August 1, 2009. Until then, you can install without a key and it will be fully functional for 30 days. They will go live with the public beta before then.
