I just checked in again for the first time since about 6:00 on the Windows 7 Beta download – got this message from Microsoft:
Thanks for your interest in the Windows 7 Beta. The volume has been phenomenal — we’re in the process of adding more servers to handle the demand. We’re sorry for the delay and we’ll re-post the Beta as soon as we can ensure a quality download experience.
I’m glad they noticed… But their comment – phenomenal? A blind man could have seen this in a crystal ball – c’mon people, be prepared…
