Rumor: new build due out tomorrow in x64 flavor

So, I heard from someone who usually has access to builds that there will be another x64 build coming tomorrow. All I know so far is that it is not 7231, but probably a bit later than that. I have no idea yet if it will be ISO or VHD, we'll just have to wait and see.

I'll be waiting

Thanks for the heads up

Yes ty same here good news

Looks like it's gonna be another VHD.

Ah ty blackrose will hold off on the VHD then

Hi there
build 7231 its a vhd - can't confirm whether genuine or not.

Looks like the RTM will be released at end of next week - but it's not yet known whether the RC keys will continue to work.

This is where MSDN Technet subscription will start being useful for future W7 builds -- I suspect that 7229 build is the last one where the RC keys will work.

Cheers

You could well be right there Jim . Guess us folk without TechNet subscriptions will have to fall back on tried and trusted methods .
Begging and looking around a lot

What? A real RTM - final Windows 7.0 next week already? Why are they in such a rush? Don't get me wrong, I'm looking forward to getting the final version, I would just prefer if they took more time testing and fixing. Also, there still hasn't been a build with version 7.0, has there?

I very much doubt it - there is no reason why they should. Oh well, I guess they will get quite a few more MSDN/TechNet subscribers :-) I know I want the legal RTM a lot sooner than 22 October

You just contradicted yourself really good there.. lol I don't understand why your all in such a rush to get the RTM.. Yes it will be good to see how Microsoft is coming along with Win 7 but holy sh*t, the RC works PERFECTLY FINE... Oh well, makes me glad I have a Technet Subscription..

If the file you get from torrents has the exact same MD5, SHA1, etc. number as the legal one, it doesn't make a difference right? :P
