Odd, still not there for me. I use msdnAA, though, maybe that's the problem... It was there a few weeks ago, though, hmm...
Hope I won't have to wait till Oct 22!

Just checked my MSDNAA account and it's there: Enterprise in 32 and 64 bit flavors and two DVDs with language packs (which you can't install anyway).

Windows 7 is still not available through IEEE or ACM. I read that it has been permanently removed due to too many registrations. So anyone reading this do NOT buy the subscription, you can't get windows anymore.

I had MSDN for awhile and they often do wierd stuff at times, it will be back as its prolly a server thing.

TechNet still has it.

Technet is a completely different service. No, it will not be back, it was stated that too many students registered and they now offer the $30 W7 Home instead of the msdn access. It is not coming back.

Still gone from MSDNAA (via IEEE) for me. Sucks, I need to reinstall soon. :\
BUT... Windows Server 2008 R2 is still there. And it's exactly the same thing, isn't it? Same core as in Win7, just a bit more functions...

I am confused...

I have had a MSDN Operating system sub and I can still see all versions of Win 7 there. Technet also has all versions which I have a current sub.

Is there another MSDN service you are talking about ?

Same here as well as all other OSs.

He is talking about MSDN Academic Alliance (MSDNAA).

Ah well that explains it, he just said MSDN so I was confused.

Not there any more, LOL.
Just a heads up.
