You should see the yammering in the winxp beta newsgroup. A bunch of yahoos with nothing to do but beat on each other. Sh*t, it's worse than a bar fight.
It is entertaining, tho. Some have gotten emails, but the word is all WPP participants will get an email today with the location of the Download Manager and a login ID with a password. Some 100,000 have signed up for the WPP, and I expect that to avoid a meltdown MS is staggering the downloads. I'm in the program and I'm waiting just like everyone else.

Update from the beta NG:
"Well, they told me over the next "few" days they will send an a.m. and p.m.
batch so as not to overload the servers, but they weren't sure what order
they were using"
This is from the Conxion people.
