prostoalex writes "Microsoft Windows Vista Beta 2 is now available for download from Microsoft's official site. If you remember seeing reviews of it already, Microsoft made downloads available to a limited set of customers last month. For PC users that are already running Windows Vista Beta 2, Microsoft put together a list of additional downloads like product guide and feature lists."

    Linux has been available for download for many years, as well as FreeBSD! Better yet, when Vista is finished they'll put a hefty price tag on it... Linux and BSD will still be free, to download. Seems like a no-brainer to me.
