anyways, i was looking around on the web and i found out about a new version
of Windows called Windows 7. it seems to be the replacement of Windows
Vista. i was wondoering if anyone knows of how i could beta test this new
Windows operating system.
It will be a while before it is open to public beta testing. Possibly
years.

Check back in about 2 years, there may be a Beta 1 version by then.

Please see the following:
Supercede-

take the place or move into the position of;
So yes, if it supercedes Vista, it will take the place of Vista.
If all you want to do is use Windows 7 before it is released, you don't need
to do anything except wait for a public preview. If you want to Beta Test
Windows 7, then submit your request at the link provided.
Changes may include a multi touch interface, and a new build of explorer.

Well, you can download free software (including operating systems) from
many other companies, and that doesn't make them any more special.
Mozilla, Opera, Canonical, Red Hat, Novell and others are examples :)
Nevertheless, saying "MicroShifty" is kind of unpolite, I agree.
