Cool, so this one that's on that nova thing is fake, can we nip this thread in the bud or something, before we end up with 200 posts that all say exactly what percentage of what torrent they happen to be at giving us the point by point reports as it progresses? Thanks...

It'll be out when it's out, people, geezus, go for a walk or something. :)

Bit lame really that the build is going to leak before testers get access to it. Microsoft have been shafting their testers quiet a bit of late

Oh, boo-hoo. Are you an equipment manufacturer that pre-loads a Microsoft operating system? Do you develop software for the Windows platform and pay the ridiculously high subcription fees? No?

Your name was drawn out of a hat. I fail to see how you're being 'shafted.'

EDIT: Doesn't matter, read the post wrong. ??

Anyway, to add something to this post...If 7100 is leaked them rest assured MS won't be happy at all, and neither will any of the testers that pay for things like this.

MS would be least worried for RC leaking ahead of the public release because there isn't much time in it. There is also nothing secretive or super buggy in that build to be concerned if it leaks a week early. Testers don't pay for testing these things.

Don't close the thread, it's not that long. We are all waiting for a *real* leak of build 7100 or RTM build 7115+. We already know for sure that those builds exist and they are in the hands of OEM's and TAP Gold. We also know that the signoff for 7100 will happen in few days. When that happens, either it will leak or be more broadly available via TechNet or MSDN. smile.png

I think you're right. MSFT might like to see a leak at this time. It would let them get some unofficial feedback and telemetry before they commit to a public RC without be 'responsible' for it. Then they could 'adjust' dates accordingly, since they have not committed to a date.

Why does 7115 have any significance? Won't it just be some less stable RTM branch build compared to the official RC?

That's because windows 7 betas are so stable already for a lot of people that it doesn't really need to be more stable for a lot of us and we rather have the latest code base.

      No, "a great deal" for 32GB of DDR5 is $50, not $350. I mean I see what you mean, that it's a decent price compared to what's currently available, but you really should put a disclaimer in this articles explaining that it's still multiple times more expensive than it used to be.

    • Linux 7.1 stable launch looms as Linus Torvalds releases the final release candidate

      By zikalify · Posted

      Linux 7.1 stable launch looms as Linus Torvalds releases the final release candidate by Paul Hill Linus Torvalds has just released what’s expected to be the final release candidate of Linux 7.1, rc7. The Linux founder said that this RC is not small, but smaller than recent releases, which is a good sign because he expects the stable version to drop next week if things continue on this trajectory. Linux kernels see a merge window for the first two weeks of their life, where developers add new features, then there are about seven or eight weeks of release candidates before the stable version. Typically, there are seven release candidates, but if more time is needed, then an eighth release candidate is released too. This week’s RC’s biggest area of fixes was for GPUs, with networking just behind. Torvalds said that the rest of the release was “pretty random and spread out” with some architecture fixes, driver fixes, filesystem improvements, and build fixes for more unusual configs. In terms of specific pieces of hardware receiving improvements in this update, we had more AMD Zen6 models supported and fixes for AMD SDMA 7.1 and GFX11. Hardware that got improvements includes Lenovo laptops, HONOR laptops, and MSI laptops. Here are the changelogs for those: ASoC: amd: acp: Add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Pro 7 15ASH11 Input: atkbd - add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Air 14 (83QK) Input: atkbd - skip deactivate for HONOR BCC-N's internal keyboard ASoC: amd: yc: Add MSI Raider A18 HX A9WJG to quirk table ASoC: amd: yc: Enable internal mic on MSI Bravo 17 C7VF When the stable Linux 7.1 is released, it will be up to distribution maintainers, such as Canonical and Red Hat, to release the update to their users via the update manager. Some versions of Linux will get it before others, and some will never get it at all. Fedora and Arch-based distros will be among the first to get it, though. If you don’t get it, the security fixes will be backported to your system’s kernel, so you won’t be at risk, but you won’t get newer hardware support, which is fine if your computer works now.
