I'm downloading both the 32bit and 64bit versions of the beta2 public
preview, the 32bit is over 3GB but the 64bit is only 13MB, is that correct?
Or did I miss something?

No, its not correct, Vista x64 BETA 2 is 4.5 GBs.

I realize, Andre, that you answered Steve's question, exactly, informatively
and most important, succinctly. However, isn't it conceivable that there is
a problem with the download and what Steve really wanted to know is what
steps he can take to download the correct, non-corrupted file? I would love
the answer to this question myself, as would many others, I would assume.

I'm having the same problem. The ISO file is 13.7mb. I actually created a
DVD with it and tried to use it. It creates a partial install CD, but there
is a bunch missing. Leave it to MS...

File Name:
vista_5384.4.060518-1455_winmain_beta2_x64fre_client-LB2CxFRE_EN_DVD
Size as DLed: 13.8 MB (14,532,544 bytes)
