at this point, it isn't even Beta, until it is releases to testers, it is
Alpha (usually internal only).

Thinking about windows 7
what would be the best environment to test this out in? (while keeping my
Vista Ult 32bit OEM SP1.....)
Virtual PC?
Virtual Box?
Virtual Machine?
What???
never done this before.
Add another hard drive and install the new system on that using a
dual-boot setup. Dual boot isn't the only option for that setup, but
it's probably the easiest.
Or - if you have a tower system with external bays, buy two drive
caddys (about $30 each), install your current drive in one and the new
drive in another and install the new system on the second drive while
the first is powered off/disconnected.
Using a virtual machine will be a lot less hassle, with such an early
beta.
