Sadly I can't play until I get home, but I am connect to my home computer, via GoToMyPC, and installing it right now. Don't tell my boss.

Oooh... Gonna try it myself.
We played the first Diablo quite a bit. My bros and I would gather up computers and have a nice LAN party.

One of my bros is already refusing to even try it since D3 requires an always-on Internet.

Install complete. Can I go home now?

I can't log onto the game, for some reason.

Ah, the beta doesn't start until Noon PDT; two hours from now.

Good, so I can hold off complaining about not being unable to play until noon.

My connection from work to home is too slow for me to play on my home computer remotely, but I still tried to log in and it seems their servers area little overloaded at the moment.

I was able to log in long enough for them to tell me I'm not allowed to log in.

Does seem to be pretty slow right now, though.

Seems like you aren't the only one. Read on the bnet support forum that it is a known issue and they are working on it. No ETA.
