    By posting a direct link you mean uploading the official RC ? (really hope you do)

    "On Tuesday, May 5 (PST), the RC will be available to everyone via our Customer Preview Program. As with the Beta, the Windows 7 RC Customer Preview Program is a broad public program that offers the RC free to anyone who wants to download it. It will be available at least through June 30, 2009, with no limits on the number of downloads or product keys available."

    You'll likely find that many with paid subscriptions already have both or at least one of the two already up and running just by looking at some now asking for help with some problems they ran into as well as looking some of the new tutorial seen lately like the new XP mode. Windows XP Mode - Install and Setup

    That was finished once the RCs were on and running well in order to look over the new feature seen with 7. And you know just about everyone will be booted into the RCs following May 5th!

    Sorry Night Hawk I didn't fully understood what you said. Why people will be using the official in May 5th if the leaked 7100 build is exactly the same ?

    In the immortal words of the guy who asked "Why climb Mt Everest"

    Answer : "Because it's there".

    Incidentally if the hashes are the same then the build WILL be identical to torrent ones.

    However some people *might* be more comfortable with "an official release".

    Incidentally if MSDN subscription keys are different then when doing a windows update they might get different updates etc -- I don't know of course.

    I assume however in testing an RC meant for "Public Consumption" this would cause a bit more problems in maintenance as you'd have 2 different streams for the same product.

    I'll be keeping my 7100 until either

    a) the initial feeding frenzy on the public servers will have died down (probably after a week or so).

    b) Somebody comes up with a "show stopping" or major difference between the "Official Leaked" build or the actual "official" build.

    I'm quite sure mine is 100% genuine in any case .

    Cheers

    So if I own 5 computers and I am the only user and I want to install, say, Windows 7 on all of them. Why would I NOT do it through a TechNet Plus subscription?
    And if I can do this legally, what about things like the 20% off coupon at Quickstart.com, etc.? Is that the way to go?
    I recall years ago being a member through Volume Licensing and there was something that precluded using the subscription as a means of having legitimate licenses on nothing more than home computers.
    Any ideas? Thanks.
