BitTorrent, Meet VistaTorrent



Ask and you shall receive! We wondered aloud last week why Windows Vista Beta 2 wasn't on BitTorrent, given the fact the Microsoft download servers were completely slammed with requests for the 3.2 GB product and documentation. While Microsoft didn't want the product on BitTorrent because it wouldn't be able to control/monitor the feedback as easily, a couple of enterprising Windows testers have created VistaTorrent to help bottlenecked wannabe testers. On June 12, we heard from Microsoft officials that the company was rapidly closing in on the 2 million figure for the number of Vista Beta 2 downloads it was planning to make available. So if you haven't gotten your bits yet, you probably have another day or two before you'll likely be closed out.
