Download complete. I used simultaneous connections (Flashget download manager default) which I thought might corrupt it but the MD5 checksums (checked with Md5Check v2.1) matched; 8867C13330F56A93944BCD46DCD73590 for x86.

Funny how thousands are still trying to pull the leaked version when they could get it straight from MS servers at faster speeds (for now) without uploading.

Anyone who has installed it.. did it give you the option to upgrade your previous install?

No but you can mod an ini file that allows you to do so. I myself can't justify why anyone would upgrade a beta OS and spend time fixing those issues rather than fresh installing. Vista to 7 RTM is understandable but still upgrade installs are usually slower than clean ones and they get into problems.

I'll probably install it sometime today, if I can figure out how to partition a HDD, otherwise I'll finish playing Scrapland on my XP partition and format it and install it there.

Servers went down again, and I had 37 minutes left to go. :(

I do because I want to keep everything I've got installed already installed :(

Don't Panic! Keep trying it will come back up. I just finished mine and I started downloading 30 minutes before anyone else did.

Thanks to Bresnan for a really poor connect! thanks to microsoft, don't be mad we started early without you.

If you're upgrading from 7000 to 7100, take a look at THIS POST as it outlines the procedure, and all the bugs (or lack of them) experienced.

BTW thanks to neowin and the OP for an incredible Win7 experience... this was the icing on the cake :)

It is just a means of security from my point of view, you never know what can go wrong. I remember upgrading from XP SP2 to Vista beta 5219 only to have my DVD Burner give me Code 11's constantly in Device Manager no matter how many times I reboot, reinstall, uninstall, etc. A clean install fixed it. All else worked fine

Wow.. I'm burning this as slow as possible.. 4x speed and it's taking less than 10 minutes. o_O!

Wow.. thanks. I guess I'll do a fresh install. :)

    • Meta launches new AI glasses in 26 styles and Muse Spark multimodal capabilties by Pradeep Viswanathan Meta today announced a new line of Meta Glasses in partnership with EssilorLuxottica. The new AI glasses build on the company’s existing smart glasses portfolio, which is sold under the Ray-Ban Meta and Oakley Meta brands. The new Meta Glasses start at just $299, are compatible with prescription lenses, and will be available in 26 styles across different colors, lenses, and frames. At launch, Meta Glasses will be available in three frame styles. The Meta Adventurer features a clean rectangular design and comes in Standard and Large sizes. The Meta Fury is a bolder frame for users who want a stronger look. Meta Glasses by Kylie is a slim oval frame designed in collaboration with Kylie Jenner. Similar to existing Meta AI Glasses, the new Meta Glasses include a dedicated action button that can be used to quickly access Meta AI or launch a favorite feature. They also feature open-ear speakers for calls, music, and more. Meta has also included a multi-mic array with wind noise reduction for calls and messaging. Users can capture photos and videos hands-free using voice commands. Meta claims more than eight hours of battery life, while the portable charging case can provide up to 40 additional hours. As expected, Meta Glasses come pre-loaded with Meta AI powered by Muse Spark from day one. Muse Spark is the first model from Meta Superintelligence Labs with improved multimodal capabilities. The same Meta AI upgrade is also now available on existing Ray-Ban Meta and Oakley Meta Glasses in the US and Canada via an update. With the Muse Spark-powered AI assistant, Meta AI in the new glasses can provide smarter answers, understand what the user is seeing, and help with daily tasks such as calendar management and navigation. Meta also announced an upcoming feature called the dynamic photo feature, which captures multiple frames and recommends the best one. Pedestrian navigation is also coming soon to these glasses. Meta is also adding support for 14 new live translation languages, including Japanese, Mandarin Chinese, Hindi, and Korean. The new Meta Glasses are available starting today through Meta.com, Best Buy, Amazon, LensCrafters, Sunglass Hut, and select retailers.
    • is that a personal preference? whether it is or isn't, i get where you're coming from. i try to get and use fully open sourced applications whenever i can but there are instances where i find a superior product that is closed sourced. in these cases i do my best to learn about the company, who operates it, their background, parent and sub structure etc. to some extent, depending on "the smell test". i really believe that Syncback is really and truly something great. even if you don't use it, it's always worth a recommendation to someone else, especially if that someone else is not very computer literate. for someone of your calibre you, you'll manage just fine with Syncthing, no doubt about it.
    • I agree, especially if it is cloud sourced, like this one is.. but I wouldn't say no to a local AI assistant similar to the Zettlab one which would be really helpful with my large Photos library, but also to perform tasks like installing Docker apps rather than me having to do it via Docker Compose, but I don't think we're quite there yet. Synology Photos is somewhat AI, you can ask it to search for certain people (if you have tagged them and it will attempt to match similar photos to the person) and if you put a search term in for "cars" for example, it will show you all photos with a car.
