Windows Seven! ULTIMATE EDITION! ON DVD! Can you hear my excitement!? I get to install it on to a laptop tomorrow for a buddy. He is downloading and burning the iso tonight.

That said, I cannot burn the iso because I do not have a DVD burner available I also got Windows Embedded Developer Edition v6 on DVD! As well as XP SP3 iso and Vista editions. I am well pleased. I can tell you.

Windows Seven, eh!? Nice one, College

How did they get hold of it?

Well, actually, I am not as excited as before. Because I just went to the download site (it's a college deal with MSN) and its only a RC (release-candidate) that means its not the finished version sadly.

BUT, it is Windows Seven, and will run perfectly fine on your machine. It'll just need a ****-load of updates when they release them (I hear they already released 8 service pack updates for W7 so far)

Sooo, not as excited as before, BUT - at least I'll get to play with it real soon! Tomorrow to be exact.

To answer your question: The college has a deal with MSN regarding all its software. This is why I have Visual Studio v6, 2005, and 2008 (which would normally cost $1k+) for FREE! I also have a ****load of Vista editions, XP editions, and now W7 editions (both 32-bit and 64-bit) to play with...

Also, MSN Accounting...the list is endless. Too many to download I am afraid, but I'll try my best to get them all!

when is it officially coming out?

Oh, I dunno, some time this year I guess.

Here is a screen grab!
