Actually, the public vista beta was a big mess. The private builds after it were better - but Windows 7 beta right now is tons better than both XP and vista betas were. Very stable, compatibility is fine, better performance (than vista).
If you play FreeCell, there's a interesting paragraph about its inventor.
Inaccurate! The interesting paragraph about the inventor of FreeCell is present in my copy of the article, despite the fact that I do not play FreeCell./badjoke There's nothing wrong about the statement, semantics would say.
It does not exclude the possibility that the paragraph is there if you do not play FreeCell.;)

I like this build.
IIRC they plan to release a public beta like they did with Vista later this month.
Why leak it? I don't think they're happy to remind people leaked versions of their OS can be found as torrents on the internets.
