Sukonka, the one who leaked Windows 7 build 7068, recently posted this line of RC branch builds.

7088.0.winmain_win7rc.090419-1500

7100.0.winmain_win7rc.090421-1700

It seems like we're finally at the end of the line here, with the expected build jump having happened, and the Windows 7 RC is done as of yesterday.

I've seen no other news on this yet.

FWIW, the latest main branch build that I've seen is 7115.0.winmain.090421-1650

Hopefully it will get posted on Connect so us tech beta testers will actually get something before the public does, like its supposed to be. I have never understood Sinofsky's reasoning behind "it takes to long to prepare a build" for beta testers so we just won't give them anything. During the Vista beta we got tons of builds, I can understand how THAT would of wasted alot of time that could of been used to fix bugs but not giving us at least one official private build is just rediculous. I mean obviously MS is probably the one behind all these leaks but if they already have all these builds to give out why not give them out officially. CTPs don't have to be thoroughly tested and thats what these leaks are basically.

Sorry if Im sounding like a broken record. Im sure plenty of people have already asked this question.

The compilation date matches perfectly in line with the previous reports that OEMs would be getting RC yesterday. The question now is when Technet/MSDN subscribers can start downloading.

Yes, after I posted that thing I remembered what was posted about OEM's the other day. :p So we really saw this coming already. But yeah, I guess one can see it as a confirmation in numbers. I can't really imagine a high profile release like this taking long to leak either, and I hope it won't take long for us to get it on MSDN.

Feel like an idiot testing Windows 7 for Microsoft, why did they even select us testers when they just wanted to give us one beta build ? i mean come on Microsoft, why the harsh treatment, the least they can do is to release the RC build to us testers first.

I mean obviously MS is probably the one behind all these leaks

Yes... obviously...

Wrong thread?

Good to see Windows 7 coming along nicely, hope to see the final RTM build sometime soon!

Um yea, if you do require further explanation... I had 2 thread windows open, and was posting a reply, and did it in the.. wrong thread...

you know honestly i dont see why Microsoft just dont come out and say well we wont leak any but if we do go ahead run them and help us squash any bugs that effects your day to day life in the builds. i think would help qualify Microsoft to get windows 7 out the door sooner then what they probably was thinking of doing even if it is only 1 month sooner or 3 weeks sooner that be a help.

Microsoft is probably the one behind all these leaks. It makes testing and finding bugs so much easier when you have thousands, if not millions of bug testers doing your job for you

Yes, there's a good chance for that.

Anyway, I'm sure the RC will come our way soon enough. However, I'm more interested in Build 7115 ;)

More interest in an unofficial leaked build over the official RC? Okay then. :blink:

    • Limited time Prime Day deal cuts price of this Hisense 65" 4K smart TV in half by Ivan Jenic It’s Amazon Prime Day, and brands are offering great deals to consumers. One of the best deals of the day is definitely this Hisense 65" U7, which is currently $799.99 on Amazon, down from $1,499.99. That's nearly 50% off and $700 saved on this feature-packed 4K TV (purchase link down below). The U7 uses Mini-LED backlighting with up to 3,000 local dimming zones and up to 3,000 nits of peak brightness. That means blacks are truly deep and highlights are punchy enough to hold up even in bright rooms. The screen is covered with a dual-layer anti-reflection coating, which prevents the afternoon overhead lights from washing the picture. For gaming, the native 165Hz refresh rate and VRR 330 support make this one a great TV option for PS5 and Xbox Series X. The TV even features a native game mode, which should help minimize the input lag for a better gaming experience. Audio is handled by a 2.1.2 channel system tuned by Devialet, which is a notable partnership for a TV at this price. Additionally, Dolby Vision IQ, Dolby Atmos, and IMAX Enhanced are all supported. It runs Fire TV with Alexa+ built in. So, if you’re looking for a sharp, large screen to watch the World Cup on, the U7 at this price is definitely an attractive option. Speaking of which, Hisense is the official sponsor of the World Cup, which should mean absolutely nothing to you, and isn’t the reason why you should by this TV. The reason why you should buy it is that it’s “la bella televisione, HDTV-compatible, beautiful,” and available at half the price. Hisense 65" U7 Mini-LED 4K Smart Fire TV - $799.99 | 47% off on Amazon Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • Re: Capitalism. It's just 1 of dozens of economic models currently-adopted worldwide; most national models separate money from politics thereby limiting the influence wealth carries over the economy (due to limited tentacles wealth politics has over the broader economy). The "American model" of unfettered financial influence should NOT be the variant of pure capitalism adopted worldwide. More regulations formulated within this variant is effectively useless due to the misalignment between regulatory objectives and fundamental influence wealth politics carry over the market. Re: enough money. Without constraining the breadth/depth/scope/scale that any measure of money/wealth can have within a market, there will always inherently be those who have "enough money" and those who do not. Those without "enough money" will always lose -- regardless if a bedroom DJ, indie developer, or million-dollar corporation going against a billion-dollar mega-corporation. The evil is the absence of guardrails against the influence of wealth; not the mere existence of wealth. Re: dragged through the courts. The liberalist nature of litigation does not exclude anyone, anywhere, for any reason for getting dragged through the courts. Rather than formalize remediation pathways for various perceived ills, everything is left up to flawed interpretations... and this is where a litigation-averse community fails to thrive (thus a losing proposition when dragged to courts). Everyone should have more protections and clear remediation strategies! Going to an alternate remediation arbitration is OK so long as the case review and remediation processes are clear and transparent. For corporations, hit them where it hurts: automatic financial penalties. (PS: This is where corporate risk management strategies would do well to behave more ethically.) Overall, failure to truly shake-up the incentive core and regulatory extremities of the economic market will necessarily mean that all other actions are simply applying lipstick on a pig. Change begins from the inside. Is the root cause of the problem that a majority of consumers within a market goes for Option Brand-name versus Option Indie? Or that brand-name is spending foreign money to control domestic markets? Or that money is the objective measure for success across all walks of life? Or that deep pockets dictate the moral and ethical rights/wrongs of entire societies? Regardless of the answer (and there's nothing inherently wrong with being a socialist or communist or whatever label your surroundings deem 'cool' or 'uncool') there's a common thread: If a market truly wants to nurture domestic innovation, then performative finger-wagging will do nothing to that end.
