Windows latest build - 7061 "Almost" out in the wild RC1 delayed to May

LOL i can understand that. 7 is going back to old school codenames....

Seriously... Can you imagine this forum with another name?

Windows Epiphany: Epiphanyforums.com
Windows 6.1: 6point1forums.com
Windows Vienna Sausages: viennaforums.com
Windows Fiji: Fijiforums.com

Imo, none quite as appealing as Sevenforums.com :P

I don't know why all the hoo hah, everyone running round like headless chickens downloading this, that, and the other, barmy.

I use 7048 downloaded from M/S (official) plus activation key, works perfectly well,

What do they get from all these extra downloads, little more than cosmetic changes.

I'll wait for the official RC, it will have all the bits included.

How did you officially get 7048 i wonder?

Most of us are just enthusiasts and new builds are clearly better than older ones in most cases.

No, it isn't. You can't create millions of lines of code in just a short time. It would be tedious.

I seem to have been very lucky until 7057, all new builds seemed better but 7057 will not even install on my desktop for some reason, but its working great on my laptop, better than 7048 as far as i can tell but not much in it.

Not to mention the 2010 expiration.
