Site THEVISTA .ru uncovered confirmation of our information about how that partners will receive Windows 7 in the very end of July, and if more accurately the 24 July 2009, the way the end of July we mentioned back in early March this year: "... inside Microsoft expected final build (the create test and master images) RTM release Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 at the last week of July".

Shameless copy-translate-paste from wzor.

I hope thats not true and i hope we do see the release this Monday :)

Release? I don't recall anyone ever saying that there'd be a release on monday, just that it gets announced as being RTM. That doesn't mean it'll be available on Technet etc on Monday though so don't get your hopes up.

Yeah, it's like watching grass grow. LOL.

I heard Ballmer gave the development team a few days off for the 4th of July weekend. Then it was back to the grindstone. Notice there were two builds back to back recently. They are trying to get it together and probably working through the weekend.

The grass had grown slightly taller lol. :sleep: :sleep:

True; however, it's believed (or assumed) that Microsoft will make it available to MSDN/TechNet subscribers and partners on Monday or sometime this week.

Phemo is actually correct. Microsoft will talk about Windows 7 in many sessions all next week at the WPC09 in New Orleans. They may even announce to the crowd during Ballmer's keynote address on Tuesday that their engineers have agreed on the final bits. Once it is released to the major selected partners/testers, and they have had a chance to evaluate for at least a week or so, then it could go to MSDN/TechNet/all partners. The date I heard was the week of July 24th for that to happen. Will one of the selected partners leak it, maybe. Will one of the MSDN or TechNet subscription users leak it, undoubtedly.

That "anyone" is Neowin News, goto page 1, post#1 and see the quote.

btw, saw segobi enquiring in tor-ru on the 7600 thing, I can tell from here, it is most probably real, I know who is behind the info. I had never mentioned rtm to be 7300 as I had some tip-off recently.

And...... don't dream of a 2nd 7106, the link is dead, the guy who did it is also.....stone dead. :no:

OK, guys, seems the long wait would be over really soon. :whistle:

A few hours ago, PCBeta had a post stating that "from sources of MS China", the Win7 RTM build is :

7600.16384.win7_rtm.090710-1945

WZOR has not reported yet, but on the tor.ru forums, seems he is waiting for a confirmation on the build string:

7600.16386 xxxx

Edit: WZOR just officially announced :

Trust Onyx ! :cool:

Some more info.

The process of Release assembly engineering keeps being on track, while RTM build number has already been locked ( unless Something Huge unexpected ). Don't believe in rumors that some critical system bug was found that slowed the process. Typical FUD.

The only possible alterness of Release roadmap the last hours is the timeframe of public RTM availability. Two of the most important Vendors brought the last hour @ hardware quality labs new driversets, demanding inclusion and dropping the previous ones ( due to problems they caused ).

The process of changing the driver pack at the last moment, might delay at the worst few days the public release. Most expected is that WHQL will complete within few hours the driver check so RTM schedule is on track.

Thanks again go to one of our good friend.

    • Forza Horizon 6 gets big bug-fixing and balancing update by Taras Buria Today, Playground Games released a big Forza Horizon 6 update with a long list of fixes, patches, and balancing tweaks that the studio promised earlier. Version 375.327 is now available on Steam, Microsoft Store, and Xbox, offering users improvements for AI, audio, design, performance, road discovery, upgrades, visuals, online play, and more. Some of the most notable changes in the Series 2 update include rebalanced drivatars, particularly their difficulty and race start behavior. As such, the game should be more balanced on higher difficulty levels, and AI cars should not shoot out when the race starts as if they have rocket boosters. Speaking of difficulty, developers nerfed Drag Tires physics for a more expected and realistic behavior. They are no longer the go-to option for record-breaking times in road racing, and all leaderboard entries with drag tires will be removed. Completionists will also be glad to get a new feature that lets you see road discovery percentage in each region, which should make discovering all roads easier while keeping it quite challenging and interesting (I spent quite a long time finding the last road). Festival Playlist is also getting some much-needed fixes, including patches for bugs that allowed completing Seasonal Jobs ahead of time or where weekly challenges would not unlock for some players. Developers will retroactively give reward points to all who could not complete all challenges due to these bugs. Other changes include changes to Horizon Play progression so that it is easier to reach Level 100, audio improvements on lower-spec devices, fixes for visual glitches, including pixelated smoke, and more. Developers also addressed the currently non-working Eliminator, an online mode gamers used to farm credits with a Hummer EV exploit. Playground Games plans to re-enable it soon. As a gesture of goodwill, players will get a free McLaren Sabre. Those who used the exploit will not be banned, but developers plan to roll back credits to a maximum of 10M for all who farmed credits using the exploit. You can find the complete changelog for the latest Forza Horizon 6 update here.

    • Microsoft brings Planner Agent to all Microsoft 365 Copilot users by Ivan Jenic Image: Microsoft Microsoft has announced that Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot is now generally available to all users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license. Planner Agent is the latest addition in the string of AI features that Microsoft is implementing across virtually all of its products. The agent lets you manage tasks through natural language prompts directly inside Microsoft 365 Copilot. You can create and update tasks, check priorities, and get insights about current entries without leaving the chat interface. The general availability release comes with a handful of new additions on top of what was available during the initial rollout. A new plan picker lets you search and filter your plans by name, then update task names, statuses, due dates, or priorities through the agent. There's also a goals bucket now, which lets you group tasks under specific goals. This builds on the Goals view, a feature that was introduced as part of the broader Planner refresh that rolled out earlier. Image: Microsoft | Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot All AI-generated plans and tasks are created in draft mode by default, so you can review and approve changes before anything goes through. This is actually a thoughtful safety feature, because trusting AI to handle all your tasks without a human in the loop is usually a recipe for disaster. Having tasks initially saved as drafts is the best possible middle ground. Microsoft also says that not all tasks are executed equally. Simple tasks get processed quickly, while more complex ones, like building a plan from a Word, Excel, or PowerPoint file, are handed to a more capable model. Microsoft says this approach delivers the best performance, but it could also help with usage management, as you won't have to waste tokens on performing simple tasks. Planner Agent is available now across Teams, Loop, SharePoint, and other Microsoft 365 apps for anyone on a Microsoft 365 Copilot subscription.
