I got a copy of the Windows 7 Beta copy from my colleague and installed it on my Lenovo X61 tablet. The install went through pretty smoothly and . upon booting up the computer, me and my colleague had the following conversation..
Colleague : Thats a Beta!!
Me : Yes.. it is Beta..
Colleague : No.. No.. that”s a beta!!
Me : Dude.. seriously.. it is Beta.. I know it..
Colleague : (almost smacking me on my head) No..that is a Beta Fish!!
Looks like a smart programmer (or marketing person) put the picture of a Beta fish as the default background for Windows 7 Beta 
.. Here’s a screenshot.
Hopefully, Windows 7 will finally convince us XP lovers to upgrade. Vista is a failed operating system as far as I am concerned. Not in the league of “Windows Millenium“, but it is going to be shoved away into the annals of history soon if Windows 7 delivers as promised.
‘Dude..seriously..I know it is beta’, LOL
