Removing the Beta
The Windows 7 Beta will stop working on August 1, 2009. To continue using your PC, please be prepared to reinstall a prior version of Windows or a subsequent release of Windows 7 before the expiration date. We recommend doing a custom (clean) installation.

Will we have to re-enter the keys and re-activate on every fresh install of a newer build?
-
Yes I am afraid so, but hopefully the next builds will keep using the same Beta keys.

When they launched the IE8 RC1 update yesterday there was a hint in their blog that IE8 in Windows 7 will get updated at the next update of the OS. So looks like there will be a further beta.

7025 is fake, the setup and version info is 7000 as is a lot of files. I have it on good authority that the version your seeing is faked. There is a build 7025, but it does have subtle differences then what your seeing on the screenshots.
ill see if i can get anymore info *damoh of to pester somone a bit more*

lets take this from a logical point of view...
we know Microsoft is still updating their software. IE - new constant rebuilds of the OS. its a fact. They haven't stopped, and won't stop until the product is...RTM i believe the term is. That being said, there is a possibility that "maybe" the photos released are fake. Entirely possible, but to think that Microsoft is not on 7025 by now..doesn't make sense. If they released 6801 in October...and 2 months later are on 7000, then by schedule 7025 is actually a little behind in the rate they have been going at.

If you want a good source to get your info from you should check out My Digital Life, that's where most of the builds were seen first and they always had a direct download link.

Right then
There is a build 7025 in existance. However the screen shots are faked. There is obviously somebody who has seen this build in order to know compile dates etc... I have been told that there has not been any leak of 7025. And believe me my mate knows. As of yesterday MS were compiling build 7028, which i am told may be RC1 if it remains good. All the core elements are in place, obviously now they are just fixing bugs etc....
Now this is not to say that 7015 WONT be leaked. All i know is that it has not been leaked as far as he can tell. the changes over 7000 to 7025 are minimum, nothing really noticble in the eye candy so to speak.
However if it leaks then at least it can be added to the collection lol
Hope this helps
