Microsoft was not prepared for the onslaught that its servers would receive when it made Windows 7 beta available on January 9, 2008. Because of this many people experienced great difficulty downloading it.
In a very classy move on Microsoft’s part they are extending the availability of the Windows 7 beta download until January 24, 2008. Originally Windows 7 beta was to be limited to 2.5 million downloads but now millions of more users will have access to it.
So if you weren’t able to get it on Friday you should have no problems getting it now.
