Announcement: 50% discount on Windows 7 Pre-Orders for a limited amount of time.

A gentle reminder to readers who may still be running the Windows 7 Beta that it will start shutting down every 2 hours from today. To stop this you need to upgrade to Windows 7 Release Candidate (RC), which won’t suffer the same fate until March 1st, 2010 by which point you probably will have purchased the full version.

If you do try and install Windows 7 RC over a Windows 7 beta build, it won’t work.  However, if you want to install the Windows 7 RC candidate and not lose all your customisations then follow these instructions.
