jmc15john Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 I got it about a week and a half ago. Via Torrent. It only took about 8 hours. Then once the public beta was released I got an activation code and walla. I successfully activated Vista Beta 2. Good Stuff.

thagame Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 Quick question. why is there a yes or no if your asking when. It's sad when you can download Vista Beta 2 faster illegally than legally. if ms hosted it on a torrent it woulda blazed through in like an hour.
