    If anyone here actually did any beta testing for M$, you should know thats M$ sends you the ISO file to burn yourself. I am beta testing office 2007 and Visio for them. When I got the download from them it is in ISO format. So I don't see how you can just call people pirates without having the full story. From one beta tester to another, yes you can burn the ISO to a dvd and boot it from your drive. If XP is what your running now, you will have to reboot with the DVD in the drive. Just make sure in your BIOS settings that you select the system to boot from the DVD drive first.

    PS: DOn't bother testing Vista for them anyway! The OS is crap and has to many bugs and hang-ups in the beta version they are giving to testers. I got rid of mine along with a lenthy report back to m$!

    And...if someone was actually beta testing for MS they would know how to burn their copy, they wouldn't be asking at AD.

    That is true, but there are a few people out there who sign up for stuff without knowing the basics. Probably misplaced the product key e-mail they sent him. LOL

    M$ actually lets people beta test without making sure they're smart enough to realize that a cdrom isn't a cupholder?

    Wow, that explains a lot.

    When I became a certified system builder, at least they called me up and asked me questions, lol.
