- Ehm... nope. This is not true. RC1 is not ready yet. Your source is wrong. JDP customers got a pre-RC1 build, as any of them know.

Microsoft builds names into future releases. Just because it says RC1 doesn't mean the build number IS RC1. It means that they are ramping up to it, and that it is imminent -- within a week or two. This has been true of every beta and RC from Windows 98 on up.
It's the same as the release of Windows Server 2003 ... the final few builds had no magic build number in the lower right hand corner -- to a casual observer that would make the product appear to be release, full, gold! omg!!~!~~! But alas it isn't so. Sorry..

Last wednesday Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 hit RC1 stage and was released to the special JDP (Joint Development Program) customers. We got hold of RC1 and decided to test it to its limits and show you some of its developments since its public Beta 2 stage. Outlook web access has changed slightly and is now much more like its counterpart (Outlook 2003). Exchange in general at its RC1 state is much more efficient and more stable than when it was at Beta 2. Installation is much easier than previous exchange versions on Windows Server 2003.
In my opinion the best part of Exchange 2003 is the fact is natively supports outlook web access with support for mobile and wireless devices. As to the core of exchange, at heart much hasn't changed since Beta 2 apart from a few improvements and better intergration into active directory itself and Windows Server 2003. We thought we would take a few screenshots for all those beta freaks and people who are interested in Exchange Server 2003 and its great Outlook web access.
Check out our exclusive screenshots below.
Note: We apologise but the screenshots of Exchange Server 2003 RC1 have been removed due to a request from Microsoft.
The BPI's executive chairman Peter Jamieson said: "EasyInternet Café is liable for a clear and profound breach of copyright and I am glad that Stelios has seen sense and agreed to settle this case."
Stelios Haji-Loannou said: "The BPI originally asked for a million pounds' damages so at least they've settled for a 92 per cent. What is interesting is that they preferred to settle rather than to test whether they can continue to enforce the prohibition of music downloads."
"I think this is the warm up lap since I suspect I will be back in court with the same people, the media giants, when easyCinema has to sue the film distributors for basically the same thing, restrictive practices at the expense of the consumer."
