sharp65 Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 One big change is in the installation of 7137. It gives you the specifics of copying files ( xxx of 216mb) and gathering files 113,404 of 199,244 for instance. No big deal, but a big change. That's not new, it's done that for a while for me.

Maybe it is because you upgraded...usual installation does not give that info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What made you think that the Release Candidtate would not be representative of RTM? If you are not that impressed, buy a Mac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well honestly I was expecting some type of visual change sort of like the development of windows vista. It's technically been the same since build 6936. And also sorry i don't only have positive things to say about windows 7 sure it's an improvement but there are things that i'd also like to see and if me saying that is some kind of treason maybe i will get a mac :).

Well, it's a Release Candidate, so of course there won't be big changes anymore besides squishing bugs. Still interesting to see that they already started working on sp1 with 7138, on a different branch, too (winmain-sp1). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason they did it with 2008 was to synchronize it with Vista as it is the same OS and shares updates and service packs. How does that apply to Windows 7?

Lamp Post Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Probably MS will release WIN7 as SP1, like they did to Win2008 serverhttp://blogs.zdnet.com/microsoft/?p=1193 The reason that they released Windows Server 2008 as SP1, was that it was built on the same core as Vista, which had got SP1 at that time. Win7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 builds on the same core, though no one of them has a SP1 released yet (as they are both in RC stage), thus I don't think they'll release Win7 as SP1.

Anyone know the current status/build of Server 2008 R2? It's a pretty silly guess. Afaik: Server 2008 R2 and Win 7 use the same codebase. Server 2008 and Vista SP1 use the same codebase.

Win2008 R2 again isn't Win2008, but Win7 with added server functionality (just like XP 64 wasn't XP, but Win2003 without server functionality). With Win7 it wouldn't make sense to release it as SP1 right away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
