SOFTWARE FURRY giant Microsoft has invited a number of folk to help test the latest build of its constantly futuristic Vista operating system.

This is part of its Vista Beta 2 customer preview programme and it is limiting participation to 100,000 testers. When that number has been reached, this particular phase of the test will be over.

A reader invited to test Vista said the download is 2.89GB.

INQ Poll

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?

Yes, companies should suffer an immediate death penalty upon being accused of copyright infringement.

Yes, the coppers said the company was breaking the law so it must be guilty.

No, the company and the people accused are innocent until proven guilty.

No, the company had millions of customers who have been harmed by having access to their data files cut off.

I don't care, I never used Megaupload anyway.
