Obtaining RC2

[Guest]

Hi

I ordered RC1 from the Microsoft Vista Website, I'm just wondering, how do I
obtain RC2?

RC2 was only available for a short time to the public. You can only obtain this build if you are a MSDN or TechNet Plus subscriber as of this time. Public availability is closed. Not sure about the beta team on Connect though.

RTM is tomorrow and a trial version will be available Dec 1.

You're welcome to call me stupid, but what do you mean with RTM (release time
or something)?

Release to Manufacturing. That's when the final code is burned onto
DVDs, boxes made and packed in preparation for shipping.

Will that be available to all testers or only MSDN subs?

The trial will be open to everybody. And there are no "testers" anymore for
Vista now that it is RTM (soon).

I heard that the installation keys we used with Beta 2 and all the versions
up to RC2 will not work with the RTM version. Also, there's been a 5800
version offered around on the torrent websites that claims to be the RTM
version. Any comments on either of these claims ???

I dont think it can be downloaded anymore.
