happy to wait a few days till there is actually an activation for said RTM

Then I think you will be waiting until October 22nd as that is the time when Retail via PURCHASING either an upgrade or full retail version.

Any other Activation method is illegal.....
Your view of Re-arm being a Frankenstein method is unfounded.....it is a standard feature in all the builds (was in Vista as well) and it allws you to legally "evaluate" the software for up to 120 days before activation

Please read THIS, then think before you type. :).

WARNING
Please DO NOT post or distribute any Torrent or similar links to the RTM build anywhere in these Forums. They are NOT permitted and will be removed. Requests for the same are also NOT permitted. This also applies to PMs (private messages).

Also, cracks or any other form of circumventing activation are not permitted anywhere in these Forums.

Ignoring these warnings can get you permanently banned.

I think an ADMIN should somehow stick this into the first post of all of these build posts sence some people cant read stickys.... :)

The common "Frankenstein" reference refers to keeping something alive which by rights should be dead!

Also remembering incidents with Vista where updates for pre-release "re-armed" strangely arrived a week or two after legitimate builds... which should be of concern to anyone "evluating" Win7 for an extended period of time
