    I never got around to installing the Windows 7 beta image, but now I have no idea where I saved it on my MacBook Pro. I definitely did download it. What were the names for the 64-bit downloader (I forget if there was a downloader or how I downloaded it, it was official from Microsoft's site, though) and the 64-bit Windows 7 image? It'd be good to clear up a few GBs from my HD. Thanks.

    It's an iso. Can't you do a *.iso search? Or it works differently on macs?

    I believe the name of the iso began by 7000 (version of the W7 beta).
    I tried to search "7000" on my mac and the ISO appeared in 1 second, first of the results.
    :)
