...and Snow Leopard is just another version of Leopard, your point?

I use Chrome and Safari. I removed IE8 as it's a PoS, and I'm sick of Firefox crashing. I've tried 64-Bit FF and Minefield, and think they both suck.

If you'll give us a list of sites you will buy from, or the sites that have stores close to you, we'll better be able to help you. Also, we need to know what kind of graphics slot you have, whether it's PCI, AGP, or PCI-e. To check this, use the following program: GPU-Z Video card GPU...

I should point out that we already have a thread like this, so -CLOSED-

No, there will NOT be another public release, period. If you're doing this legit, the next time you'll see Windows 7 is on its October 22nd launch date if you choose to buy it.

... torrents aren't legal if they contain illegal files, bruh. PS: No reason to install this build, or anything after 7100 IMO. Waste of time since it's all minor bugfixes and ZERO new features. A big waste of 3 GB of bandwidth.

I'm also hearing rumors of RTM in late July, not August as previously stated. That means I get Windows 7 three months ahead of schedule. =D

Boot the XP CD. Wait until you're asked to press "R" at the screen which you choose to install windows at. Type the following commands into the command prompt - fixboot - fixmbr then, type exit. reboot, and see if it works.

Well, to answer your question, no, you're not the only one to notice. There's no real answer to this yet, but I suppose it's to accommodate users who don't HAVE silverlight. I have, however, heard that they're experimenting with a new interface using silverlight, so you may soon get a choice.

The heck with the RTM? RTM is the same thing that will be released on the 22nd of Oct, only if you get an illegal copy, youl could have it in August, when Windows 7 goes "gold". As for RC2, there won't be one. This has been stated many times. The builds post 7100 are in the RTM or SP branch...

^^ That could be legit as well. I never said it wasn't possible to install a service pack on an OS lower than Build 7200, however slipstreaming WITHIN MS didn't occur until the fork at that build number. If you got hold of a SP1 standalone, its possible you could install it on 6801, even.

Going to address some issues. I abandoned this project a while ago, as I realized that there's no real way to test certain things in a VM, and things that ran one way in a previous OS may not run the same in a new one, so technically OS benchmarking is unfair, even if raw numbers are used and...

I believe it's a 128 MB or better DX9 compatible graphics card. I've heard of some cases in which a 64 MB card worked, however its unconfirmed as I don't have one to try.

Just a note, Windows 7 RTM branch was forked at 7200, not before. Previous "SP1" build numbers were not as they seem, as it was not an official SP1 build, instead it was a pre-alpha service pack installed on the OS, not a slipstreamed copy. Just thought I'd clear that up. Also, to throw my two...

Well, lets see. 4 times pre-beta. twice beta. three post beta 2 RC Four post RC So that's fifteen.

Confirmed. It has to do with language packs.

There should be a Windows.old folder somewhere, delete that to free up space. Also, a run of Disk Cleanup would probably free some space.

^^ Correction, it's not a leaked early version of the RC, it's a Pre-RC build, and honestly, if you don't move the the RC, you're an idiot at this point. There's no reason to stay behind, and the RC improves upon Windows 7 in a lot of ways, including stability, security and others. Also, since...

^^ Also, it might be a setting on your motherboard. My mobo has a setting for "Top of 4 GB RAM" the setting either being 3.3 GB or 4 GB, so that you can allocate RAM to video.
