Title: Windows 7 RC download and key link from MS Post by: TX-EcoDragon on May 06, 2009, 06:58:02 pm http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7/download.aspx
I'm probably not going to rush to install it instead of my earlier beta build of 7, but I'm grabbing the iso and key now. . .the dl speed is such that it's going to be about an hour and a half to get the 3+ GB file.

Watch the calendar. The RC will expire on June 1, 2010. Starting on March 1, 2010, your PC will begin shutting down every two hours. Windows will notify you two weeks before the bi-hourly shutdowns start. To avoid interruption, you’ll need to install a non-expired version of Windows before March 1, 2010. You’ll also need to install the programs and data that you want to use.

I'll have to do a wipe and complete install?
