Get your Windows Vista Beta Keys early

If you are crazy enough to try a beta version of Microsofts upcoming operating system you might want to head straight over to microsofts vista website and download a version for either 32-bit or 64-bit. You will need a Microsoft Live account to download windows vista. You can also order a dvd that will be send right to your home.

I would not bother with a beta version at all but I know that guys canĀ“t wait to get their hands on the latest software, even if its beta. There is another reason why Windows Vista, be it beta or final, will never make it on my computer. You should read up on pvp-opm (protected video path – output protection management) and puma (protected user mode audio) if you are not familiar with the terms. You can read about them at engadget, lockergnome, ehomeupgrade and pcstats.

And if you are at it you should read what the Trusted Computing Group (evil :grin) has to say and what the users say about Trusted Computing
