Default Windows 7 Newsgroup?

I did a search for windows 7 on the msnews.microsoft.com News Server and got
no hits. The beta versions have been out for months and the regular version
is due in 10 days. Anyone know of any other windows 7 newsgroup?

I was thinking the same. Shouldn't MS have them on msnews.microsoft.com
news server? I am old school.


I have been informed that "probably" they will at some time in the future,
but for now, all there is is the web forums.

I suspect that because of the Vista fiasco, they will want their forums
to be moderated and I don't expect a Usenet Windows 7 group.

It seems the one Windows 7 Usenet group for Italy has been pulled from
MS' servers which indicates to me that there will be no Windows 7 groups.

Well it's certainly not on the MS News servers now and hasn't been for some
while...
