    I probably already know the answer to this question.... but I thought I'd ask anyways....but,
    I realize that Vista beta 2 is pre-release software that is to expire on June 1/07, but what I am wondering is, does this mean Vista will nolonger work as of June 01/07?? or will it still run....

    I have other programs that still will run after the expiry date but will nolonger install, if I ever needed it to re-install.... but I've also run into programs that will nolonger work etc after they expire and I am curious as to whether Vista will keep going......

    I don't think it will keep going... am I right in thinking this.....

    I cannot for the moment lay my hands on a reference I saw to this. If I recall correctly Vista Beta 2 will work after June 07, but with limited functionality.
