Can't find it circa £50 to preorder anywhere now

 

[David]

I see Premium will not come with Virtual PC, yes you can download it....

Is that the only thing about "Windows XP Mode" tho? or does Pro have more XP Integration?

Just installed RTM, bit of faffing to set everything back up but you have to love the 7 experience

 

[David]

where'd u get RTM from?!

 

[safe9998]

Can't say but it's nice

 

[Griff]

Just installed RTM,

7600.16385.090713-1255 ?

 

[lmao2k]

I thought that build was the last rtm candidate, not the actual build for the final

 

[Griff]

I thought that build was the last rtm candidate, not the actual build for the final

I only posted it to see if safe9998 even knows what the RTM build is let alone have it installed.

 

[fUbAr]

No pre-orders left in any PC World store as of the start of this week...

demand has been higher than expected... much more popular than Vista was!

 

[David]

got mine from misco then turns out i'l lget ultimate for free on volume licensing, prob sell my copy wwhen i get it

 

[safe9998]

I only posted it to see if safe9998 even knows what the RTM build is let alone have it installed.

Yes because I'd just post to say I've installed it if I didn't even know what it is. .Griff, what do you actually do just love geeking in general?

 

[sneeks]

its his technet membership card thingy

My brother's company has a MSDN membership and I have access to it if required. I still opted to buy W7 Premium though.

 

[FlamingMonkey]

I thought that build was the last rtm candidate, not the actual build for the final

From what I have read 7600.16385.090713-1255 is the RTM

So if he has 7600.16385.090713-1255 installed its the same build as we are getting 6th August, thats my impression?

 

[Griff]

From what I have read 7600.16385.090713-1255 is the RTM

Correct.
