    He's wrong in the interpretation (assuming he's set the LOCALE correctly). European dates are DD/MM/YY not that American abomination and confusing format of MM/DD/YY. -- Even YY/MM/DD would make more sense but MM/DD/YY (WTF). That format is of totally no use to man nor beast.

    I'm sure anybody still running a EUROPEAN version of Build 7000 will confirm the expiry date is in DD/MM/YY format (or it would have already expired).

    I am sure it made sense to the person who verbally pronounced the date as "January 1st, 1704" as opposed to "1st Jan 1704".

    Well the thing that stood out right off is a look at how fast this was seen having just downloaded the 64bit 7077! timing factor! Then you see a serious lack of the information(not the blocked from view) provided by the SIW tool. lack of items in OS information!

    On one previous attempt for the 7057 the download was a genuine leak at a Russian site while the torrent used was the problem. This time the torrent was a champ for speed without being a paid premium version for a useless build someone toyed with. Once I boot into it a few more times something else will likely turn up

    When looking over one torrent site one thing will separate it from the previous builds simply by looking how this used upper case naming while the 7077 saw the "with trackers" added onto the end not part of the actual name.



    The one other oddity to mention here was also seeing the translation bar at first site.



    In order to see the supposed full water mark that was easily dragged away from the taskbar where it appeared automatically.



    Now compare that to the sig below.
    Good point....

    Yeah but it didn't mean that you had to continue using such a stupid date format.

    Let's think about this shall we....

    1st January, 1704
    January 1st, 1704

    The difference is minimal. You can always tell American date format as last i remember there is no 11th of the 21st 2009 (11/21/2009) it's not that difficult to understand

    I heard recently that DC was to get a single representative in congress and I was dismayed for only one reason -- license plates.

    DC has the snarkiest license plate slogan I've ever seen and it tickles me whenever I see it:

    "Taxation without representation"

    LOL

    Why don't you just run cmd prompt or type "slmgr.vbs /dlv" in search and see what you get?

    Ok slightly off point here and not seen it mentioned anywhere else but might putting different product keys in give you a different Evaluation end?
    The reason I ask is that going by the Evaluation end date showing above on 7077 it is a different date to my 7077. Mine states 02/06/2010 on build 7077. I use the partial key: PBJ73.

    Probably nothing, or could this answer the difference in expirey dates?

    I don't think it makes a difference what key you use to activate, it does appear there are two conflicting dates, and the 2/06/2010 was the date mentioned by Microsoft, so it seems that the winver about screen may not be correct.

    The things that stand out the most right from the start on this is first seeing what appears to be the same logon screen the 7077 sees after the first restart while the entire installation starts with...



    It's definitely an older working build with some changes seen since it was easily activated apparently either a 7000 or 7022 modified version once the translation was complete.



    You first have to get used to trying to install anything however if you don't read Chinese(simplified) or don't regularly install softwares where you know how the next and other buttons go.



    Now here's where the fun part is! Since this was a special case it needed the endorsement of a special admin(account that is).





    Well besides a little fun seen there apparently there are some preloaded "tracking cookies"! being seen as the test partition set up for looking over any new builds is rather hidden in plain sight as the initial AVG scan reveals. With one quick look there are too many to be simply from the three intial IE tabs that open once connected online suggesting?
