"If this is a beta, presumably it's full-featured, couldn't somebody just use this beta as their default OS and not bother paying to upgrade Vista? What do you lose by permanantly using this beta? Can you remove it easily?"
The beta expires on August 1. I don't see how one would remove an OS without reformatting unless you're doing an upgrade or it was installed to another partition/VM, which in both cases the current OS doesn't need to support the removal."
you will be able to buy the final verison by that date
"I was amazed to read about this in the paper today. I was under the impression they should still be working on making Vista somewhat decent. I still use xp and havent felt any need to change up.
Can anyone describe what Windows 7 will do that xp or vista won't? "
