Is there any legit (or fairly legit) way to get a copy of the Windows 7 public beta now that MS now longer offers downloads?

I registered and go a key, but was told I can't download from them anymore.

If you trust torrents, you could get it that way. If you want to pay for shipping, I could mail the 64 bit version. Sadly, I forgot to save the 32 bit version.

Windows 7 RC1 will supposedly be officially released on April 10. It has an expiration date of 3/10, versus 8/09 for the Beta 1 version you are looking for.

So if I wait till April 10 I'll get another crack at downloading from MS?

Muadib, thanks for the offer, but I need the 32bit version. I want to try Win7 out on my new netbook.
