Microsoft has just released the second beta version of its upcoming Windows Vista operating system. The Windows Vista Beta 2 is now available for IT professionals and developers with MSDN and TechNet subscriptions. Microsoft will also launch the Windows Vista Customer Preview Program (CPP) for non-subscribers in the coming weeks. You can download this beta product from the link below if you want to. Personally, I won’t touch any beta product from Microsoft. The other reason is, I don’t want to waste my bandwidth for downloading any 3GB files.

Windows Vista introduces a breakthrough user experience and is designed to help you feel confident in your ability to view, find, and organize information and to control your computing experience.

The visual sophistication of Windows Vista helps streamline your computing experience by refining common window elements so you can better focus on the content on the screen rather than on how to access it. The desktop experience is more informative, intuitive, and helpful. And new tools bring better clarity to the information on your computer, so you can see what your files contain without opening them, find applications and files instantly, navigate efficiently among open windows, and use wizards and dialog boxes more confidently.

Note: After downloading, you will need to obtain a Product Key from this Windows Website.
