HI and welcome to club Vaio,

I installed the beta into a VM.
I hope you know that Windows 7 is still in development and shouldn't used for productive laptops.
If so I would reccommend you not to upgrade or install it directly to your Vaio, instead using a Virtual Machine:
http://www.virtualbox.org/ this software is for free.

As soon as M$ will publish Windows 7 there may be official install disks who allows to upgrade from Vista but atm (as far as I remember) there is NO Upgrade aviable through the test versions. If you'd like to replace your current stable vista through the unstable Windows 7 testing you'll have to completly remove Vista.

I woulnd't recommend to instal Windows 7 before stable release unless you're working for an industry which needs the testing version e.g. for developing software.

Yes, i know that it's a beta version, i hope in the future will be possible to upgrade an OS, because this version of OS is faster and have a lot of other good features.

If you're seeking for good features, did you test different types of OS including non Microsoft solutions?, like apple or Linux? you can get the latest ubuntu (linux) version for free. Give it a try it gives much more features and speed enhancements than windows 7, I saw you're Russian, so you bei ask Aleksey who already tryied Ubuntu.
