Lead Head:
i am going to download it and see if it will run on my 266MHz K6-2 machine

adiment:
I'm not aware of the legal issues behind windows vista beta, but I hope that link is legal.

Also, who would want to run a beta OS?

Lead Head:
i do to see how much CPU power it needs to run it, because in the screen shots it has way to much eyecandy
