Well too bad.I am not a member and I will consequently not be heard.

I agree that the various builds should be avalable to TechNet and MSDN subscribers. I do not know why this is not done?Can someone from Microsoft tell us why?

Hi SvenThis will not happen.Interim builds are not even available to the official Technical Beta Testers.A time consuming and complex testing process must be performed before any of the beta versions are released for testing.The next build will be the Release Candidate.There has not been any announcement as to when this version will be available.The good news is, contrary to previous information, upgrading from Beta 1 to the RC version will be supported.Hope this helps. Thank You for testing Windows 7 Beta Ronnie Vernon MVP
