Please somebody leak it.
Then the Torrents will be so busy that I'll be able to download the whole Kybosh from the Official Microsoft site in about 15 mins whilst everyone else is complaining about Slow Torrent download speeds.
C'mon people -- May 05 is almost around the corner -- if you download RC now what are you going to do after it's been up and running stably for a week -- Look for the RTM builds perhaps.

Ok, it appears from some conversation I found with Microsoft that this is the situation right now:
a) Windows 7 RC is compiled and being released to Gold Partners for testing as we squeak
b) The build number for it is not known to the public at this time (the bits can't be much different than 7077, just some new drivers and a few bug fixes.)
c) It is NOT available yet to MSDN, TechNet and general partners, however it may be before May 5th.
d) The general release of RC has a download target date of May 15th now.
e) The original RC date of April 10th was delayed primarily to get the bits in compliance with the EU requirements.
More info as I find it.
You know, if these governments spent more time governing and less time on the take from the megacorps in their countries we'd have the RC. It just makes me a little sick every time this tired old horse gets beat -- I mean how much have the various governments of the world milked Microsoft for now?
