MS has pulled the activation keys for the Win 7 betas. Does anyone know
where to find them?
It's east to find pre-7000 keys but they don't work, of course.

Don't get your shorts all in a knot! MS will have the keys
back up later. Besides, you have 30 days to activate, so
there's no 3-Alarm fire!

They are limiting the number of keys to 2.5 million.

Current expiration date is Aug. 1, 2009.
slmgr -rearm will give you 120 days beyond the first 30 days, so it works
out to be about the same even without a key.

OK, good. As to my shorts, I like 'em that way. 8^)

P.S.: If you can't access the forum you will have to register. It teaches
you how to obtain instantly a key from technet.

There are also posts in there with all the keys generated
for public distribution. If you read the EULA it also
states you may use the key to activate unlimited installs.

Windows 7 Beta build 7000 keys:

482XP-6J9WR-4JXT3-VBPP6-FQF4M

JYDV8-H8VXG-74RPT-6BJPB-X42V4

There may be more, but these are what they're posting.

Yeah, found those also, but I didn't know whether it was quite legal or not
to publish them.
