images/news/windows.jpgTomorrow is the last day to download Windows 7 and get a license key from Microsoft. So if you've been putting it off, it's do-or-die time. Here's quick access to everything you need.
Heres where you get the download and product key—pick 32- or 64-bit and you'll need a Windows Live account. After punching in your user and pass, you're presented with a product key and a download link. If you're at work and can't download right now, what you could do is go ahead and grab a product key (or two) so you'll have 'em, and then grab the install files later. Not sure if Microsoft will still be hosting the download afterward, but there are other places to get the Windows 7 install files, luckily.
Problems? Likes? Dislikes? Bugs Talk all about it here in the forums.
Update:Microsoft's decided to extend the beta download period to February 10th. That's the second extension we've gotten from Redmond -- the company says that interest is so high in 7 that it doesn't want anyone to miss out.

I've got 3 rigs running 7 beta 1 now. Free keys should be given to anyone that bought Vista!!!
