Perks of living on a small island on the other side of the world, we see the new sun every morning first, we got GTA IV first at the midnight release, and now we get Windows 7 first =D
October 22, that's the date Windows 7 will hit retail shelves and start being sold on new PCs around the world. While the code will go RTM and be released on MSDN, Technet and undoubtedly every torrent site and warez newsgroup before that date, October 22 will be the first time "normal" people will have a chance to get their hands on the new operating system.
But, do you want to be the first on the block to get a nice shiny boxed up copy of Windows 7? Well, you're going to have to catch a flight to the land down under to do it. Microsoft has confirmed to ZDNet that due to the International Date Line, New Zealand will be the first country in the world where Windows 7 will be widely available.
No doubt I will have me a copy of the RTM well before then, but I glad I get a legit copy first.
