Ok,been trying to get the beta so I can be ahead on the M$ game.Went to Microsofts site and went to download the beta and it gave me two(2) choices,Download for 9.99 bucks or the CD rom for 19.99 (mail).Well I did the download one and gave them my billing info.I expected to be directed to a download site but rather got this e-mail:
Congratulations!

Unless you're an official Beta Tester for MS, there are no legal places to get it. ;)
