using the beta for a couple of days now. i am sorry but graphically i found vista better. most software are supported. performance is marginally better. not much of an upgrade though, nothing in comparison of xp -> vista.

Hey no need to loose heart. I hope you were downloading using some client? Nearly all the download managers support redownloading of the same file from alternate URLs. So unless your download has been nullified and the partial file lost, you can continue your download from the previous state simply by providing the new links as alternate links to the download manager.
Are you using Orbit Download Manager?

And btw, the public beta has been pulled up even before it went online properly :P
"Due to very heavy traffic we’re seeing as a result of interest in the Windows 7 Beta, we are adding some additional infrastructure support to the Microsoft.com properties before we post the public beta. We want to ensure customers have the best possible experience when downloading the beta, and I’ll be posting here again soon once the beta goes live. Stay tuned! We are excited that you are excited!"
 
thanks a lot banda, was dloading on the earlier links and stopped at 56% for 32 and 65 for 64 :@:@:@
