I *think* it used to be, when you were a beta tester, you got a key. Now I am not sure how. There are ways though I am sure

I figured it out, you have to create a stupid account and log into live windows.... let me see:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsvist...y/preview.mspx, then you log in, and it goes through like 113 redirects. The final product should have links for download, and a product key... I would paste that URL, but I'd be willing to bet you'd get an invalid login and get redirected to step 1 of my process here.... Now if only I can get it to freakin install :eek:

Did you download it from Microsoft? If so, the key was on the page you initiated the download from. If not, good luck.
