Inctye Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 who is forcing you to waste the time ? It's a waste in the sense that a lot of us have been hawking around the past few hours just waiting and now, even 1hr after the time it was scheduled for, we are still empty handed. And according to that article someone posted a couple pages back, it seems like business customers are getting priority right now for the keys due to the higher demand from everyone else. I am on break from college. So, I have nothing else to do but to sit and wait for whatever happens next.

Eric Veteran Posted January 9, 2009 Veteran Share Posted January 9, 2009 That is not even the correct url.http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/dd353205.aspx https://www.microsoft.com/betaexperience/pr...us/default.aspx is the landing page after the survey. It should be where you get the key, but it doesn't work.

Griffin Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Ease up guys if there are no more keys then use it for thirty days and be happy. It was going to expire in august anyway.

tranceandy Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Due to very heavy traffic we?re seeing as a result of interest in the Windows 7 Beta, we are adding some additional infrastructure support to the Microsoft.com properties before we post the public beta. We want to ensure customers have the best possible experience when downloading the beta, and I?ll be posting here again soon once the beta goes live. Stay tuned! We are excited that you are excited!

Thom M Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 I actually got through the whole registration and on the final page (where you get the image of your key) I got an error telling me to come back the next business day. (They must have known that I was on a MacBook). ETA: The actual error was this- Error The site is currently experiencing technical difficulties, please check back in the next business day.
