PCs running Windows 7 trial set to turn cranky

,----[ Quote ]
| ON MARCH 1, Microsoft Windows 7 Release 
| Candidate users will lose control over their 
| computers. Their PCs will start shutting down 
| every two hours, even if they havenât saved 
| their work. And, On June 1, the screens will 
| go black. Worldâs largest software maker 
| Microsoftâs business strategy for pushing 
| hard to sell its new Windows 7 by exerting 
| control over usersâ PCs has opened a 
| pandoraâs box.
