RC (escrow?) milestone reached!

[colonel]

Mostly I am interested in a newer build than 7068 to hopefully resolve the Playready issues when watching QAM channels with Media Center. This has become a huge pain as it is rendering my HTPC almost useless. Granted, I could go back to another build but by that time there will most likely be a newer leak.

7077.0.090404-1255 from win7rc branch tonight

Is this still looking likely for tonight or soon? Or is this only a joke? lol

That e7 blog is awesome, especially the skip version check method. Seems like Sinofsky realizes that some of us just don't have to time to do a wipe out and clean install, so he's actually trying to help. I like how open and involved the high level MS guys are in the beta process this go round.

So, 7077 tonight? That would be awesome.

well she said tonight! she has the build, however if she will leak tonight is another question. Topic got locked for another hour or so, because it got way to much spam, so there is no new info

 

[torrentg]

Thanks a lot for the update!

 

[blackroseMD1]

Thanks for the info SoLoR. Any indication if it is the x86 or x64 build, or both?

there was a "vote" that turned in to a spam and arguing, thats why topic got locked so no idea sooner or later both tho, question is what first

 

[blackroseMD1]

Hopefully x64, although I have a feeling it will be x86.

I have never had so much fun alpha/beta testing any product as i have win7, its causing quite some storm on the net

this confirming/denying thing is making me sick.

Hopefully x64, although I have a feeling it will be x86.

x86 would be fine by me

Did Vista even get HALF of the anticipation of Se7en?

Id wait for the next official RC1 release from MS next week rather than messing about with another build.

I would to, if I weren't a build addict. But I am, so, when 7077 leaks, I will download and install it.

however that week will mostlikely extend in to a month, so GL waiting.

[jonatasmz]

haha my self is refreshing certain profile like every 2-3 min for last 2-3h should seriously find some script ;( i should go out in 30 min, dunno if i will be capable of going, before ill add torrent to my download list or she should just say "sorry guy, something came up, you will get it tomorrow" so at least we would refresh like crazy...

 

[blackroseMD1]

OK, a semi-OT question. I have never made a torrent...how long does it actually take to make and upload one for a file, say around 3.3 GB?
