    Have been waiting for them to post it on MSDN and when I went back to refresh the page, it seems it cannot sign in and get the profile data for the MSDN subscription. Perhaps their servers are getting hit hard due to it being posted... Edit: Yep, confirmed, it is out!

            Downloading the x64 version as we speak - can't get a key, though - that part of it seems borked :-(

            Java, Basic, who cares - it's all a bunch of tree-hugging hippy cr*p

                Probably just load - it's back up now (although the keys are the same as the W7 beta ones anyway), so I've got me a 3GB WIndows 7 (x64) ISO, a key and a VMWare Fusion install that's whispering "go on, install W7RC, you know you want to, go on, do it!"

                  Its a good thing I discovered Bizspark the other day. Our corporate account gets activated by Monday hopefully. Then I'll get Weven and have a look at it :)

                    Will this be available publicly soon or is it MSDN only?

                        Thanks.   Using my work bought msdn sub to DL something to play with on my personal hardware's a fuzzy line I'm reluctant to cross.

                          I hate fuzzy hardware. I try to keep my cats out of the computer room :) When Windows beta came out, I tried it on my wife's old machine (1.7 MGZ with 512 MB RAM) and it did okay, the only real problem was that it did not recognize the GeForce 4 TI 4200 card and went to plain vanilla VGA, yuck.
