Interesting. I hope to get the RTM before October 22nd. It's a good thing my dad has an MSDN subscription.

Is Windows 7 finished? Apparently not, build 7600 is not RTM

Among Windows fans, here's how much anticipation there is for the completion of Windows 7: There's actually a Web site called Has Windows 7 RTMed?

Today, the message at the site was changed to YES!, with a build number: 7600.16384.090710-1945.

Long Zheng, a respected Windows blogger in Australia who operates the site, posted to Twitter today that he believes Windows 7
has been completed and released to manufacturing. But he may have spoken too soon.

A Microsoft spokesman told me this afternoon that no, a final build has not been declared for Windows 7, and it has not been released to manufacturing.

Formally, all Microsoft is saying is that Windows 7 will RTM sometime this month.

There is, however, a build with this number on it making its way through the torrents.
