Yes, MSFT offered the Beta only for a limited period of time.
It's just like the beta of Ubuntu... it's only available for 3 weeks,
because after that, the Beta is technically obsolete, since the "RC"/
Release Candidate, comes out.
I think the RC of Windows Seven is due in a month or so, from memory,
so you could wait for that. If you are in a hurry, then I presume it
would be not very difficult to find the Beta via file sharing programs
like emule or similar.
