    For the same reason he doesn't go to the assembly plant to see how a car is built - it doesn't make any difference.

    Besides, my admiration for Kari being a nut is not based on his ethics - it is based on his demonstrative self-respect.

    Are you going to purchase Windows 7? If so then why would you not try the builds inbetween to watch how the product develops?

    In my mind, with the intention of purchasing windows 7, I can't see a problem with using leaked builds.
    I did explain the reason. I do not use any version of Windows 7 which is not officially released, nor have I ever used with earlier Windows version leeks. I don't criticize other users trying different leaks as they develop. It just doesn't suit me. Besides, my RC build 7100 runs smoothly and without problems, doing what it is supposed to do.

    In Antman's words: "If it isn't broke, don't fix it".

    Edit: Yes, I'm going to buy it. I've ordered 4 pieces of boxed retail Windows 7, two Ultimate, one Home Premium and one Starter

    Unexpected. Thank you.

    Isn't that video from the Star Trek episode where Archer jumped the shark?

    Did you notice the word "LEGAL" there in my post? RC build 7100 is the latest build you can obtain free completely legally. Later builds are leaks.

    I am one of those "idiots" who refuse to use any software, application or OS that is not 100% legal. For this reason I do not give tips telling where to get or how to find Windows 7 that is not officially released by Microsoft.

    I know this kind of behavior makes me seem like a nutcase in the eyes of the majority of this community, but I am not willing to change the way I think only to please others.

    IMHO I find this over-the-top.

    I have already purchased Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium so I don't see any reason to not download the RTM of Home Prem. now. At worst, it's free advertising for Microsoft.

    If you want to talk about what's right and what's wrong, lets start with Microsoft. I bet if I googled 'microsoft's unfair practices' you would get thousands of factual reports of the dirty things hidden in their closets. And yet you say you don't use anything 100% illegal; surely if your that virtuous you would stay away from such a 'big bad' company called Microsoft?

    It's sad that most people/media/companies always talk about pirates, but when it's time to talk about themselves, they hide. I don't condone piracy, I also don't condone unethical behaviour by companies, I am simply saying that if you payed for Win7 yet think it's 'bad' to download the RTM. Then you should really consider switching to Linux. That way you can be sure that the developer is virtuous, doesn't have any secrets in their closets. Or you could always join a peace movement. I don't intend to be rude in this post, just giving my honest opinion. :)

    Let us not fault a man for his ethics. No one has questioned yours. You have palced a character fault on "most people here.. they hide..." Of course, that is not rude. It is unfounded.

    Beware the wwood stick.

    Lol I meant most people, not most people here because almost everyone here has the RTM! I have changed that. I must have missed this wwood stick! I was just giving my opinion, again my intentions were not to be rude.
