Woo Hoo! Just got my key! Refreshing https://www.microsoft.com/betaexperience/pr...us/default.aspx finally worked. Now to get home and install :D

before you got the key, what happenned when u entered that webpage? did it redirected u to windows 7 homepage? or it appeared this error message: "Error

The site is currently experiencing technical difficulties, please check back in the next business day."??

thx in advance

Just added on the Win 7 site

"Thanks for your interest in the Windows 7 Beta. The volume has been phenomenal?we're in the process of adding more servers to handle the demand. We're sorry for the delay and we'll re-post the Beta as soon as we can ensure a quality download experience."

how are you refreshing? just putting the link in again after it redirects you or are you on some other page??

The page wasn't redirecting me. I kept getting the error saying to try back the next business day or the search page saying that the page could not be found. I was using firefox. I've since tried in IE7 and it redirects and I've tried it on my work computer in Firefox and it also redirects. Guess I was just lucky.

Read whats now on refreshed page, it has changed.

Whenever I go to:

https://www.microsoft.com/betaexperience/pr...us/default.aspx

it always redirects me to the Windows 7 homepage. :-/

I guess you managed to fill in the form from the technet site earlier, and got the email. That site I'm guessing recognizes your passport account is registered and so (trys) to redirect you to the key place rather than the win 7 site

I did fill in the form earlier, but I never got an email. I remained logged in though, so that probably helped.

    • I think this will appeal to a lot of enthusiasts. If the thermals are similar to those of a single system in a compact case, many people running multiple systems may choose to combine them into one machine, provided the case footprint remains reasonable.
    • No, "a great deal" for 32GB of DDR5 is $50, not $350. I mean I see what you mean, that it's a decent price compared to what's currently available, but you really should put a disclaimer in this articles explaining that it's still multiple times more expensive than it used to be.
    • Linux 7.1 stable launch looms as Linus Torvalds releases the final release candidate by Paul Hill Linus Torvalds has just released what’s expected to be the final release candidate of Linux 7.1, rc7. The Linux founder said that this RC is not small, but smaller than recent releases, which is a good sign because he expects the stable version to drop next week if things continue on this trajectory. Linux kernels see a merge window for the first two weeks of their life, where developers add new features, then there are about seven or eight weeks of release candidates before the stable version. Typically, there are seven release candidates, but if more time is needed, then an eighth release candidate is released too. This week’s RC’s biggest area of fixes was for GPUs, with networking just behind. Torvalds said that the rest of the release was “pretty random and spread out” with some architecture fixes, driver fixes, filesystem improvements, and build fixes for more unusual configs. In terms of specific pieces of hardware receiving improvements in this update, we had more AMD Zen6 models supported and fixes for AMD SDMA 7.1 and GFX11. Hardware that got improvements includes Lenovo laptops, HONOR laptops, and MSI laptops. Here are the changelogs for those: ASoC: amd: acp: Add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Pro 7 15ASH11 Input: atkbd - add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Air 14 (83QK) Input: atkbd - skip deactivate for HONOR BCC-N's internal keyboard ASoC: amd: yc: Add MSI Raider A18 HX A9WJG to quirk table ASoC: amd: yc: Enable internal mic on MSI Bravo 17 C7VF When the stable Linux 7.1 is released, it will be up to distribution maintainers, such as Canonical and Red Hat, to release the update to their users via the update manager. Some versions of Linux will get it before others, and some will never get it at all. Fedora and Arch-based distros will be among the first to get it, though. If you don’t get it, the security fixes will be backported to your system’s kernel, so you won’t be at risk, but you won’t get newer hardware support, which is fine if your computer works now.
