MSDN Subscribers can now enjoy Beta 1 of Windows Vista.
Can I get a hoo-ray? No? Okay.
Apparently, you have to be a MSDN subscriber. MSDN is the Microsoft Developer Network, a.k.a. Coding Heaven.
Except, if you are not a MSDN subscriber (I believe MSDN comes with Visual Studio 2003, which is what I have, and I’m almost sure it comes with Visual Studio 2005.) you have to try to…sign up with your passport for it. And it’s not cheap.
Ranging from prices from $199 to $2,799, it just may be so expensive you want to format your hard drive to Linux. (beep)
Or, you can try to get a torrent. Which I’m sure is possible, but I’m not exactly supporting the idea.
I’m sure if you’re that desperate, you’ll wait for the official beta 1 to come out, if there is one. I’m not sure of that…
…or if you’re a torrent dude, you may just get one, I’m sure you torrent guys out there know where to get them.

If you just information, here it is.
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsvista/default.mspx would be a site you would get more information. Previously known as www.windowsvista.com.
You can get more information by clicking “For Developers” under “Learn more about Beta 1″.
Alternatively, you can be lazy, and you can click here.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/windowsvista
Information about downloading Vista and cool visuals are there.

You can get even more information (only a bit, though) by lcikcing “For IT Pro’s” under “Learn more about Beta 1″.

Well, that’s that. There was a video, but I’m afraid the low-quality media cannot be found by me…
