Vista RC2
Anyone know when it runs out if it hasn't already? I signed up for it but went back to XP, I'll be getting the full version in a few weeks and was hoping to get used to it again before I buy it.

Re: Vista RC2
June or July i think you get 30 days before you have to activate anyway but you wont be able to upgrade to full version (I mean you will have to do a full install)

Soz - quickly read the post and went to Google. I'll consider meself suitably ignored for trying but dying though. 
In any case, found some people were saying July 1st, while some mentioned May 31st. I seem to recall mine being June 1st though IIRC.
