Hi,

Does anyone know of a local mirror for Win7 RC1 download please?
 
Gary's actually right :p
You can download from Microsoft's servers using local bandwidth.
 
Just do a search on the forum! There are a zillion posts regarding this exact issue.
 
They have a downloader.Start downloading using your international cap then stop it.When your int. bandwith is up just continue the dl

No need to, it downloads from the local akamai server even if you use the link from the microsoft website.
 
For those of you who are to lazy:

Busy Downloading it now too :)
Got capped so why not lol.

Where do I get the keys from again? I know it was posted somewhere but I cant seem to find it.
 
Got the links to work, doesn't seem to like accelerators.

Thanks Stickfigure.
 
I couldn't get FDM to work - not for the first time, it downloaded something else, in this case a 118K Web page. The URL that FDM uses to download changes from the one mentioned in Stickfigure's reply above to http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7/. There's some redirect / site translation going on that I don't understand. The download works if I use the normal IE downloader (corporate standard !) but I would prefer to use FDM. If anyone has an suggestions I would be grateful.
 
ah great. the MS link wanted login info and some such.
