There was speculation that the public beta could lag behind by a week, but she has since updated her blog:

Update: Nope. It’s going to be sooner, not later. The latest word: The public beta of Win 7 client is due to hit Friday, January 9, according to a source familiar with Microsoft’s plans. The public beta of Win 7 Server is due to hit a day earlier, January 8, the source added.

edit: I could have sworn you said the 13th. Oh well. I've included the link to the blog post anyway :).

lol Windows doesn't have a so called Laptop version, Windows 7 was designed to run on laptops better with better battery life etc etc

If you want a Laptop version you will be waiting along time, I said 13th for CES 2009, when anyone who participates that gets a Beta disc on the door.

anyone know if the public beta download will be limited (in numbers or time) or open to anyone and their grandmother's lolcat for a relatively long period of time?

Most likely it's up for grabs from anyone in January, then they'll charge $2.50 a pop for anyone else thereafter.

Similar thing happened with Office 2007 and Vista.

I hope MS will do that deal where you sign up and they ship the beta version to you for free like they did with MS Vista Beta's and Preview Beta's. I still have my copies lol Beta 1, Beta 2, RC and Preview :p i would never install them total driver failure lol instability

    • Fan Control V269

      By Copernic · Posted

      Fan Control V269 by Razvan Serea Fan Control is a powerful and versatile portable utility that allows you to monitor, control and customize the fans of your GPU and CPU to keep your machine cool and running smoothly. Fan Control supports a wide range of devices and hardware configurations, giving you complete control over your computer's cooling system. Fan Control backend is mainly based on LibreHardwareMonitor, an open source fork of the original OpenHardwareMonitor. This means that hardware compatiblity is entirely open for anyone to contribute, and doesn't rely on a single developer who may stop caring at some point. Combined with the plugin system, Fan Control is unlocked for many generations of hardware to come. Main features Guided setup process on first launch Save, edit and load multiple profiles Change the theme and color of the application. Multiple temperature sources ( CPU, GPU, motherboard, hard drives... ) Multiple fan curve functions, including a custom graph Mix fan curves or sensor togethers (max, min, average) Low resource usage Advanced tuning with steps, start %, stop %, response time and hysteresis FanControl V269 changelog: Allow only 1 service client at a time App title no longer show the full path Add service retry policy by default Fix pre-pairing issue between control and speed cards Fix a bug with ADLX % (duty) reporting Download: FanControl V269 | Installer ~20.0 MB (Open Source) View: Fan Control Homepage | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
