Microsoft on Wednesday started the expiration process for the beta version of its Windows 7 operating system.

Beginning today, users that are still running the trial version of the company's next OS will see it shut down every two hours.

The interruptions are designed to encourage early adopters to move to Windows 7 Release Candidate, a more polished preview version of Vista's successor.
