Is XP preview disk useless??

[VegasGMC]

I was a beta tester for RC 1 and 2 of XP Pro. I thought I would be able to upgrade to the full version afterward but all info on that has disappeared from MS web site. Is there any way to use these disks?

You have to buy WinXP like everyone else unfortunately. Isn't there a discount for beta testers though?<BR><BR>THe RC's will also expire after a certain date so in a sense they are useless now. Sorry for being the bearer of bad news man.

MS should have offered you a discount on the full version at the end of the test.<BR> probably a limited time offer, might be expired by now.

you could download windows xp corporate edition off of a file sharing program or an FTP server.
