Windows Weekly 89: Tripod, The Beta

by Jonathan Downin in TechJanuary 9th, 2009 @ 5:41 pm

This is an exciting one.  Leo, Paul and Mary-Jo are talking Macworld and CES.  Leo is the only one who attended either.  Paul and Mary-Jo insist that there really isn’t that much to get from actually being at these shows from a journalistic end.  I think the live-bloggers would disagree, but they did live-blog the live-blogs–  hmm.

As much as I love Apple, I gotta say, the $.30 per song to upgrade bought songs to DRM-free is not cool at all.  Hopefully they will change that, I’m holding out on the upgrade.

Microsoft fans who listen to the show must hate all the Apple talk.  I personally like it, but talking about Apple in in a Windows podcast cannot go over well with everyone.

Nothing really new at CES for Microsoft.  The Windows 7 beta was to be available today, but it has since been pulled with Microsoft saying “No ETA at this point” for the product keys.  You can keep up to date by following Microsoft’s Windows 7 site.  You can also download the 30 day use disk image from the links below:

Windows 7 Beta 32-bit version
Windows 7 Beta 64-bit version

Update: Beta keys are now available.  Sign in with your Microsoft passport.

Macworld and iTunes tax, Ballmer at CES, Windows 7 and Windows Live, and more.
