Ah, it won't be that long until it's leaked

I'm guessing a few hours

is it available to download yet for the partners...i'm hoping the leak comes tonight because May 5th is a long time from now and that's a long period of time using 7077

also, will this version need new keys or will the beta keys work?

Partners: If you have a subscription to MSDN or TechNet, you can download Windows 7 RC now. Otherwise, you can download Windows 7 RC starting May 5, 2009.

I'm a Technet Plus member and there is no download available on Technet for RC. The latest download was put up on 27 Feb.

It's not on TechNet or MSDN. Since I'm not a 'Partner', but I am a member of both subscriptions, I'm guessing it will be available May 5th as stated.

I guess I overlooked the "Partner" bit...darn it.

Any 'partners' out there? Give us some info! :)

Thanks for the news. :)
I am a partner & have the action pack subscription, but it's not included in that.

I'm not paying for another subscription, so will wait. :)

I guess Anthony, the OP knows more than he's letting on....perhaps...?

Romulinx2 · 18 Apr 2009

Not there yet, but should be soon!
Get ready at the starting post.

Well, really all we need is the direct download page. I remember there was one for the Beta.
