It's funny how all the people that said they got a key either registered today and they have 4-10 posts max.

I can say that I have got a key using Firefox 3 and the Click4Change refresh method as posted on various sites, including Newoin.

It took 45mins @ 2 second intervals using Firefox and C4C method.

Look at my post count and my length of membership and now say it doesn't work. ;)

ok then i'll punch steve ballmer in the face if i ever see him.

Why, what's he done, stopped you getting your key?

Far better to smack the several million people who are the ones actually stopping you, in the face. Of course, I wouldn't give much for anything being left of you after the first 1 or 2.

Hey everyone, I wanted to give everyone a quick update.

Sorry I disappeared for a bit, I went to grab a bite to eat. Haven't had much to eat today.

I spent the last few hours in a conference room here in Redmond with a wonderful group of people dedicated to getting the Windows 7 Beta online for folks. We are continuing to add servers and tweak a few things on the network site to enable us to open access to the Beta. Some of the folks I've been spending time with in this conference room will be working overnight.

I know many of you are concerned about getting a product key for the Windows 7 Beta and concerned about missing your chance to get a product key. I can't say much on this just yet but I will say you this: don't worry. :-)

It's about 1:30am here in Redmond and I'm going to head off for a bit to catch some sleep. I'm getting up bright and early (SUPER early) tomorrow morning to head back into the office (yes, the same conference room I was in all evening too...).

I would like to remind everyone that we need to keep things clean here in comments and to be respectful and constructive as well. When I come back online in a few hours, if I see certain people are way out of line here - they will be banned from leaving comments.

Thanks,

Brandon

What intervals did you set it to?

I think he should go in there and say that because people were really rude and i don't think that behavior is necessary even if the servers did go down. We are getting something for free, we should be patient.

Everyone just pull the power plug out of your walls and for the laptop users rip power and battery out

so i can get my ****en key :)

Forget the Check4Change method. It's obvious that the servers can't handle the load. Just wait for them to add the new servers and you should get your key by the end of today. Be patient! :cool:

    • It's nearly time to replace my aging Founders Edition 3080, it doesn't OC as nicely as it used to and it's running around 10c warmer than it did when I first bought it.  I don't have budget for much more than what I spent on the 3080 and locally, that means the best GPU I can manage is a 9070XT. On this basis I have a few questions: 1. At present I don't use ray tracing, if this was to change, would this GPU be an issue? 2. How does it compare on a performance basis? 3. Are the drivers worse or better than those for nVidia? 4. Linux support, is it there? 5. Anything else I should be aware of if I were to make this change? 6. Is it a good idea or shall I try and keep the 3080 a little longer.
    • What OS is that? It looks a bit like Mac OS but the command line suggests it isn't, either way I like it!
    • Outlook classic is inherently better than new outlook, for a number of reasons. That said, if the only reason people need office is to read email, they should just use thunderbird.
    • Windows 11 is a big thumbs down from me. I used for a period of a few days while it was in insider and windows 10 was the main OS, and realised it wasn't for me. I am still waiting for Windows to be tolerable again, a shame as at one point I was very pro Microsoft.  
    • Classic outlook, not only does it have a much fuller feature set, it doesn't include Microsoft attempting to sync my emails from my servers to theirs. If classic outlook is ever removed from office, and the version I paid for in 2021 stops working for some reason, I'll use Thunderbird.
