Windows 7 Beta News

After some uneventful days with barely any Windows 7 news the web is buzzing again. The latest news about Windows 7 was fueled by a blog post of Microsoft’s own Keith Combs who mentioned that attendees of one of the MSDN Developer Conferences will receive a Windows 7 Beta DVD. The MSDN Developer Conferences will take place in eleven US cities with three of the events in 2008 and the rest in 2009. Keith mentioned that attendees of the first three or so shows would most likely get the Windows 7 Beta DVD mailed when it is ready. The suggest data for that would be mid January.

German magazine WinFuture added another detail: Selected testers will receive the Windows 7 Beta in the second half of December which is exactly what we predicted in our updated Windows 7 release schedule.

Several Windows 7 news sites (here, here or here) are guessing that Microsoft will officially announce Windows 7 Beta at the Consumer Electronics Show 2009 at which Microsoft’s CEO Steve Ballmer will be giving the pre-CES keynote address on January 7, 2009.
