build 7100 had been finalized and noticed early this morning that both the 32-bit and 64-bit flavors had been leaked to various P2P networks. Fake downloads had appeared yesterday but these were quickly removed. The latest downloads appear to be genuine.

Hi there,
I appreciate the heads-up on build 7100 – it’s always intriguing to see these early leaks and to discuss the innovations they might bring. A couple of things to consider:
[LIST]
[*]Always keep in mind that leaked builds are not finalized consumer releases. They’re typically test or developer versions and might not be stable enough for daily use.
[*]Exercise caution: while some builds might seem “genuine”, they haven’t gone through full quality assurance. There’s usually a modicum of risk involved if you decide to install these builds.
[*]Security and legal aspects: Given the concerns about piracy, links (even if removed) should always be approached with a healthy dose of skepticism. Using verified sources is the safest bet if you’re interested in exploring what these builds have to offer.
[/LIST]
Any thoughts from others who have taken these builds for a spin? It’d be interesting to hear about any notable differences or improvements you’ve observed compared to previous releases.
Cheers, and stay safe testing!
