Title: Win7 Testers to recieve Free copy of OS
Post by: patio on August 01, 2009, 08:44:47 AM
In a reversal of thought MS has decided the testers that contributed to the new OS with tons of reports and feedback deserve to be rewarded with a Free copy of Win7.

This is for the invite only testers so just DLoading and running the Beta or RC does not qualify...

I pre-ordered as well...didn't know about  the freebie til last week.
The pre-order discounts were pretty nice.
