Hoax! Someone is simply playing games again! A leak without substance is like a hot air balloon without the balloon to begin with.

Yep, probably is fake. I'm going to bed, I guess I will find out in the morning what is actually contained it or if it ever finishes. Does not look too promising.

The one thing that shows that right off when looking at it is... "zh-hans_windows_7_ultimate_rc_x86_dvd_157943"! Where's the "iso" at the end?

One "undisclosed source" confirms link to phising site! Someone trying to pass a bogey along to see who gets hooked!

The uploader is zh-hans has a history of putting up OS related torrents that were good. Maybe he will seed it. Then will find out it is build 7000 in chinese. Hah!

That's the torrent file name, once you start it in your torrent client it gets the ISO on the end.

Thanks mate. I was thinking that too, but not sure if I'd be up to fiddling with a new OS install while in lots of pain!

The leaked RC (assuming it will be) will be identical to the publicly released RC to Joe Public, right?

being in a lot of pain waiting for another surgery playing around on the computer gives my mind something to do if the meds don't cloud things over to much but mostly I have majorly long sentence with bad spelling.

with an upload rate of 0 you won't have anything in the morning lol...

Right, that's a definitely possibility. Then I will know for sure it was a tease.

OK how is the download rate on that torrent page going up when there is 0 seeds?
