New Build Mania

I don't really have a reason, but I keep seeing 3 new release threads a day with 500 comments requesting links...

You don't need to download every version, especially since most don't have major changes. You end up spending a lot of time updating and having programs break from being exposed to constant upgrades, creating artificial "bugs".

If you want to be helping testing, look more for new beta Win7 driver and program releases, not Win7 builds. If you just want Win7 for normal use, find a stable version and stick with it for a while. Most of them are pretty stable... if you notice that one release especially has a lot of changes, or fixes a bug you have, then by all means upgrade, but otherwise don't be downloading the next build while installing one.

Do your part and test drivers and programs. Those make up the bulk of Windows issues.

yes, i agree to this. There is no point in upgrading our OS to every build that MS releases especially when there are so minimal changes.

stop talking crazy!

however i do agree 500 posts asking for links are annoying, everyone can use 2 or 3 basic searchers (like if its not on mininova/tbp you try bing! (or google)) and find it them self :<

hey man, there isnt anything crazy to this. tell me the logic behind upgrading the OS just for such small changes.

do you consider your build you are runing is compleatly bug free? if you do fine, then you dont have reason to update, however i dont and i update in hope of 2 bugs i have gets fixed that are kinda annoying if they stay in RTM (and are actualy not some bad driver/software fault).

Yes, i completely agree with you Solor, if you indeed have bugs in your build and want a good riddance of it, then it makes, but for me RC 7100 has been very stable indeed without a problem :)

As the saying goes, to each his own....
