Windows 7 on local bandwidth

[Pablo]

Hey everyone can someone point me on where to download Windows 7 on local bandwidth. I don't mind if it's beta version.- actually don't think proper version is out yet.

Where do you live? Copies can be burnt. Otherwise the Microsoft servers should have local mirrors. Try getting the link internationally and start downloading using a download manager then pausing, disconnecting your international and connecting to local then resume the download. Worked for me.

hey I thought W7 RC is not available for download anymore--according to the Microsoft.com website.

Oh... Maybe you can find a torrent site with RC on it.

Don't know any local torrent sites

how can this be?

 

[stroebs]

Easily... I don't want to pay a subscription fee per month to get access and I don't have access to NH so doesn't really help.

The official version was released about a month ago - for technet and other paying customers. The retail version is due out next month.
