Beta versions are like that so no need for restrictions.

Re: Surprises in the Windows 7 license agreement
Microsoft sure want you to install the Windows 7 Beta in as many computers as you want .. simple reason would be to check the stability and issues on a wide range of hardware. Any issues/bugs found will be reported to microsoft so that they can fix it  . ofcourse there will be no support

Re: Surprises in the Windows 7 license agreement
Surprising when was the last time you read a license agreement? Probably on the Winzip that you installed ?Any chance.
Still whatever tomorrow i am going to install Beta version on my lappy lying around.
