Everyone knows those ways.... or at least most of us do ;)

I really can't wait!

I think I am getting a little tired of XP now, but I must say XP served me well for 8 years... geez that is long :-|

Filesizes seems to vary between 3 and 5 GB ... that's more than my monthly cap and, at the current exorbitant price of bandwidth, the cost of downloading Windows 7 will cripple me financially!!

:eek:
 
Also you can upgrade from Build 7000 to the RC Build, details inside the NFO.

Decided just to paste them here :)

Extract the .iso contents to a storage location you wish to run the upgrade from (a bootable flash drive
or a directory on any partition on the machine running the old build)
Browse to the sources directory
Open the file cversion.ini in a text editor like Notepad
Modify the MinClient build number to a value lower than the down-level build. For example, change 7100 to 7000
Save the file in place with the same name
Run setup.exe like you would normally and the version check will be bypassed

If you're not upgrading:
Burn and mount, boot from it

Been using the beta since day 1 and i won't hesitate to purchase this with real money, i never bought vista so i have good reason to spend when it finally gets released :)
