Windows 7 RTM (The Final Countdown...)

Bugfixing for RTM is over, I can assure you.

The old joke is:
The new system is complete. We are just adding the bugs.

After all, the money is in support ;-)

EU ****ed things up , that's what they got. If I were MS, I ripped out a lot more things in version E or made a crappy build, exclusively compiled for EU..or at least put a huge watermark which is "alwaysontop" saying "build 7xxx EU edition" and covers almost the whole screen. That's what EU deserves.

The only problem with this is that version E comes to all of Europe and not only to the countries that are in the EU. So countries like Norway would get that crappy version even though they haven't said anything against MS and IE


Sorry my bad english.. I'm from Norway as you might gues

If all bug fixing is over, why do we have a new build yesterday 7271? It's almost cooked friends. :)

Oh, rumor has it that Microsoft employees and engineers are putting that build through the paces today.

Becuase they are still finding things wrong

Yes, things wrong = bugs

BTW, if MSFT is actually going to release RTM to partners at the WPC09 next week, they better get a move on!!!!! Looking into my crystal ball, hmmm July 24th equals RTM stamped gold (most likely renamed to 7300).

Will there be ANY chance at all for us EU-people to buy a download-version in our language from OUTSIDE EU, f.i. Microsoft's own online shop?

I have a feeling that installing Windows 7 "something" without the browser integrated, and put IE8 in after installation, that something will be missing like update an old version OS with a newer build, instead of clean install it. I want to buy a legal, danish Windows 7 Home Premium WITH IE8, Mediaplayer, paint, directx, games, firewall, calculator, backup, devicemanager, diskdefragmenter, trashcan, windows update, notepad, Explorer, Sticky notes aso. NOT a handicapped version missing this and that.

I think the closest you can come, is buying Windows 7 Ultimate from the US and install the danish language pack..
