Found via Winfuture.de:

First TAP partners are getting access to build 7068. A screenshot published by the Japanese Microsoft employee Shinobu Takahashi confirms its existence:

Blog post in Japanese: Here (Can anyone give a rough translation of it?)

Screenshot:

Do not ask for links to windows 7 via PM or any other means.

Do not ask for files from Windows 7.

Do not post pictures of your self downloading windows 7

Do not tell people which illegal sites to acquire windows 7 from

Anyone doing any of those things will get you a warning.

Now that you all know, I hope I do not have to give out any warnings.

Thanks for the information Mephistopheles :) It's a shame they haven't made any changes to the 'start' button :(

New font? Or just changed manually? It looks a little mac-ish, but good.

I noticed that! I hope it is new font rendering, then I won't have to use GDI++!

Same SegoeUI font, just displayed at a higher DPI setting (note the file name: 120DPI_2.jpg)

7068 has been released to testers and will probably surface on the net overnight, could be quite a few hours, Chinese are downloading through MFT.

Just a quick update to those subscribed to our RSS and Newsletter. Windows 7 Build 7068 is available via Connect right now. Here’s the build string: 7068.0.090321-1322_x64fre_client_en-us_Retail_Ultimate-GRC1CULXFRER_EN_DVD. The build was not sent out to tech testers and was for OEMs to work with.

that last thread was locked for being fake, lol...

7068 is 100% real, testers can get this build 100%, i'm sick of so many people calling fake just because they cannot find it on BT network.

Latest build is 6.1.7070.0.winmain.090324-1853 and will probably be Public RC as stated of today

26.03.2009 The Company Microsoft accidentally placed on your server or the page just yet to start Windows 7 RC dated May this year, in fact, confirmed his plans for a public release candidate of Windows 7 RC in May this year.

According to our data, this happens at the end of May 2009.

but now that the actual assembly is assembled: 6.1.7070.0.winmain.090324-1853

Nope.. :)

The icon's the same, it's just that the different DPIs make them look a little different - and the reason why the icon has two sound waves instead of three is because the volume on the machine isn't at its highest.

I said "probably" not "definetly" anyway builds could halt and MS team could go on a break, don't they do that with Escrow builds?

I think you're right atleeit. I have a feeling they are at or close to escrow. 7070 may be the one. We'll see.

    • 25th anniversary Xbox Series X unveiled with classic translucent green design

      What? They aren't removing the disc drive and charging $800 for questionable performance upgrades that are better suited to a new generation console? How outrageous!

      Bummer it's only 1TB instead of 2. I had one of those - the "Halo Special Edition" OG Xbox. This looks like a cool update.

    • Google's NotebookLM gets some useful features you may have been waiting for

      By Aditya Tiwari · Posted

      Google's NotebookLM gets some useful features you may have been waiting for by Aditya Tiwari It's been three years since Google introduced its AI-powered note-taking and research app, NotebookLM. Just when Apple is about to kick off WWDC 2026, the search giant has announced a platter of new NotebookLM features that add agentic capabilities in chat and more advanced reasoning. For starters, NotebookLM now draws its fuel from Gemini 3.5 and Antigravity to improve accuracy and reliability. One of the things people have been asking for a long time is more transparency into the thinking steps. NotebookLM now shows expanded thinking steps in chat, providing better visibility into the thinking process. Google compared the upgraded NotebookLM with prior versions and found that it "achieved an average win rate of over 65% — a 15% point margin above parity — across our top five core evaluation dimensions," including accuracy & quality, multilingual support, large document analysis, document creation, and advanced research. It showed substantial improvements in analyzing large documents, achieving a 69.9% win rate. The system also delivered "exceptional performance" in advanced web research and source discovery with a 78.2% win rate. The AI research tool now generates outputs in more formats. You can give instructions to guide the outputs and download the generated files from the studio panel. Here are the newly supported formats: PNG and SVG for data visualizations and charts PDFs, docx, markdown, and text files for documents PNG, JPG, and GIF for images JSON and CSV for structured data XLSX for Microsoft Excel PPTX for Microsoft PowerPoint You can make edits after the outputs are generated. The feature is available globally; therefore, you can provide directions in one language and create outputs in another. Google said that it's also making it easier to get started with a project in NotebookLM. Instead of having a list of sources beforehand, you can even start with loose ideas, and NotebookLM can help build the repository of sources through the chat. For instance, you can find primary sources in other languages to get new perspectives or explore related works of an author. All of these new features are rolling out globally for those who can loosen up their pockets. They are available to users with Google AI Ultra and all Workspace business customers with AI Ultra access. Google has plans to expand them to more users in the future.
