MS partner site says that RC is available to MSDN and Technet Plus users, but the links
still show the betas posted in January, so hopefully they are about ready to post it.

I'll look into this. I'm excited for the new GUI being featured in the RC.

Wanna bet? 😉 IMHO there won't be any major changes in the UI. Wouldn't really make sense to include them this late in the development proces...

Note to self: Hold off with the freakin' re-installation at least till Monday! Windows 2008 'Workstation' will work just fine again at least for a few days 😉 Hell, got quite used to this W7 thing lately - and it hasn't even been around for too long has it? It just shows it's all Vista failed to be - without the WOW. (God I hate M$ marketing dept.)
Cheers
