Windows 7 has been released to manufacturing...

Ummm... that is that transcript that never was announced at WPC09, word for word....

 

[Orbital Shark]

He sent me the e-mail:

NO word about RTM?

The first image clearly shows 'Windows 7 has been released to manufacturing...'

But i'll say again...

News like this would not be just a 1 liner, there would be PAGES of it

 

[7echno7im]

Did they also say they were a president of some country in that email? And that they needed to wire you some money?

That was the transcript from the WPC 09 that was never announced....
Allison Watson, Bill Veghte, Stephen Elop: Worldwide Partner Conference 2009, Day 1 Keynote Speeches

EDIT

they updated the notes now to fix the RTM announcement error:

 

[Charles Kane]

This is the latest US edition of MSDN Flash (Undying appears to be from the UK so may have their version of the newsletter)
Its dated July 20 - NO REF TO RTM

The UK Edition is dated July 1 and looks nothing like the one posted (maybe they havn't uploaded the latest ??)

Without evidence to the contrary, and in view of the already noted brevity of the notice , and the rather strange one-liner (with the stops after the notice) I call this out as a hoax.

Without such evidence I think undying should rep me and then leave us alone!

 

[7echno7im]

That's funny because mine says

 

[Dakana]

Methinks the OP is pulling our legs. :|

I say its a manually Edited pic of the mail, and seems like this is the mail that most guys have got.

Yea, agreed to Orbital and Kane.
Hoax Indeed (until proven):huh:

There is a huge LINE SPACE DIFFERENCE, TOO CLOSE. Sometimes this happens when you edit

Let's not jump to conclusions. I do think that it's a hoax that the OP has concocted, he has no control over the e-mail content sent from MSDN Flash (2 pics now show the 1 liner). I see the validity in what he's posted, but think that it's an error

 

[wwoods]

Nothing on technet.

Lets think about this.....it WONT be on technet as soon as its RTM.......

 

[sjaak327]

It was a reaction on this:


"does this mean the untouched iso has upped on msdn ??? "

I do know that it will probably take a while for it to appear on Technet or MSDN.

 

[Tripacer99]

OP is trolling the hell out of all of you.

 

[xendrome]

Just checked MSDN, the E-mail and the MSDN Flash Site - This does not exist.

Plus MS wouldn't do an announcement of that level on MSDN anyway. Please close this thread..

 

[Jammer]

I seriously don't understand what pleasure people get from "leaking" fake builds, providing bull**** information and so on. I mean all that proves is that you're full of crap. I don't get it.

 

[akramh]

I hate false positives, lol. I looked at the subject of this thread, and thought finally we have RTM.... not....

 

[Undying]

I just copy'n'paste content from offical Microsoft MSDN Newsletter. (same Text).

Blame the Editor (Name is on the screenshoot) and not me!

You got the point. Seems to be an error from the (Newsletter)-Editor.

 

[andych]

Apparently this e-mail has gone out to others as well.
I have asked in an Australian forum to have a copy of the same e-mail forwarded to me....once I have it...(later on today) I will post a screenie of it....and if anyone wants to check the validity (for tampering etc) just PM me and I can arrange for it to be forwarded.

Update:
When will you get Windows 7 RTM? - Windows 7 Team Blog - The Windows Blog

 

[andych]

I now have a copy of the same e-mail and as faras I can tell it doesn't look to have been tampered with. Screenie below.
All I have done is to remove the email addy of the guy who forwarded it to me.
Just a little more info to add to the list I guess.

 

[HotCarl]

Wow, is it possible then that one of the various editors let one slip? Crazy is all I can say if the e-mail is legit. HmmmmMMMMmm, very interesting... :sarc:
