RC and the actual released version

[zerodegreec]

I am sure we will see some things change, go missing or get added in with the actual release later this month from the RC. Whats going to be changed?

The RTM (final release) is substantially improved vs the RC. 120 days usage available.

I have pre-ordered 7. What I would like to know is whats chaining between RC 7100 and the real deal coming on the 22nd.

Internet Explorer 8 bugs mostly gone (still can't get pages to hold their size, tho, since 4800).

Much more polished with no discernable OS bugs.

They removed quite a bit of monitoring software from RC so am told that lightens it up even more, and it feels like it.

I'm using it now, build my son a new computer, he get it from his college, it's smoother and great boot up time with a quad-core CPU.

great! thats the stuff I wanted to hear. Did they make it so you can pin ANY folder to the task bar? or does it still only allow the explorer folder?

An example of how I pin more than one folder to the taskbar using the limitation.

For those of you wondering how Antman did that, head on over to windows 7 center . com (remove the spaces - I just love how forum software prevents you from linking to certain other forums...) and search for how-to-pin-any-item-to-the-taskbar-in-windows-7.

One is an RC, meaning it is still technically beta. The RTM version is final, which means it had all the code cleaned up, optimized, etc, so it would be more efficient, and ready for prime-time use. That's a given based simply on the labels given to them, (RC vs RTM).
