Report Accuses Microsoft of Purposefully Leaking Windows 7 Beta
Who leaked Windows 7? Was it Microsoft? Or hackers? Or the 1991 Denver Broncos?
Microsoft's Windows 7 beta 1 was not officially intended for release until January. However, the release somehow hit torrent sites this week. Many, including commenters here at DailyTech, suspected the "leak" was really a clever ruse by Microsoft to drum up tech community excitement for its upcoming release.
Now Microsoft Watch's Joe Wilcox, an observer on all things Microsoft, has thrown in his support for such theories.
