As mac said, Microsoft never created any newsgroups for Windows 7 (except
for microsoft.public.it.windows7, in Italian, which I never could read - but
my NSP still lists it as available).
The most popular Win7 NG that I know about is alt.windows7.general, which
you already found. It is moderately busy - somewhat busier than this WLM
NG. Today it had over 100 new messages, many about the Win8 preview.
