When will you get Windows 7 RTM?

[Maxman]

Windows 7 by far an immersive / tremendous OS ever released by Microsoft...

The windows 7 RTM for Technet does not expire.

Microsoft Technet gives ten keys that can be reactivated at any point, these keys are genuine and all O/S and applications pass the windows genuine test, they do not expire at any point as the keys are for development use and should not be used for general use on home workstations unless otherwise permitted to do so.

Some Corporate companies hold different licence agreements with Microsoft Technet which may allow you to use certain software being O/S or Applications such as Office suite, please check with your corporate licence manager/department.

This issue has been hashed and re-hashed. Home use if generally acceptable. Read the fine print if you are worried.

Posted by [email protected] - who I ordered my copy from:
'Your order will be available for downloading on October 22nd, 2009, at which time you will receive an email reminder. If you purchased a backup DVD, it will be shipped around this date and you will receive a separate email confirmation.'

This is just in time for our postal strikes, so maybe a week or so for delivery - oh well!

Delighted to say I received my copy from Argos this morning. Up and running.

Shame the Medion upgrade is supposedly not being despatched until early November.

 

[mcleod55]

According to New Egg, it's on the way!!!

It's now September 22nd, 2009 in Redmond Washington...It is now available for sale on the Microsoft store web site and Still no email, No debit on my bank card, pre-order at Microsoft store still says "Order Status: Processing" just as it has since I received the conformation email a few weeks ago.

Beginning to think I should have bought from anyone other than Microsoft store. Deliveries happening all over the world and nothing from Microsoft. I was hoping that people who were getting it directly from Microsoft might get quicker service on their purchases but see now that I was just kidding myself, "Foolish Rabbit".

Seriously disappointed with Customer Service at Microsoft or rather the lack of it.

 

[ttremeth]

yeah

Yeah I am waiting for my pre order keys too. I got someone in the US to order them for me. Still 2AM where they are though.
