Word on the forums is that the trial version of Windows 7, the new operating system from Microsoft has already landed on BitTorrent sites.
If you can keen to see the latest offering from the boys and girls in Redmond you can find it on several torrent sites including The Pirate Bay. The official release of the Windows 7 beta is expected in late January 2009 and MS are hoping that a successful new OS will help people forget the painful life to date of Vista. MS is asking partners to test the new system as soon as possible to avoid the problems with driver compatibility that plagued it predecessor.
Microsoft appears to have made no comment or complaint on the appearance of the torrents, unusual for a company which normally calls the lawyers at the slightest provocation.
Windows 7 is expected to get out to the shop at end of this year, Microsoft are presumably hopefully this will down down the Vista coffin for good.
