Yes, it's genuine, and no, it's not legal unless you have an MSDN or TechNet
subscription or a Beta agreement: it's the February CTP version. The public
Beta won't be available for another couple of months, give or take a few
weeks. Also, it's the *staged* download, useful only for system developpers
unless you have a *very* fast machine with lots of RAM.

| Is this really a vista beta download at microsoft.com? Is this already the
| public beta?
|
| Is it legal to download this file and to use this ctp? Or is this file
just
| some kind of a bad joke (don´t want to download 3GB and find out it´s just
| junk)?
