It does make me laugh everytime Microsoft come out with something new how many leaks there are, and how many ex MS emplyee's have leaked stuff.

But I'll wait for the release Date... And after the product launched, people prefer to use Piracy... Strange but its true..

Perhaps some people do, these are mostly people who were dropped on their head as a baby, watched a SAW movie aged three years old or are suffering shell shock after some fierce combat at Gallipolli.

I always wait for official MS releases, the early releases and betas are often worse than the version they're trying to improve.

Only exception I'll make to Betas are video drivers, they are sometimes good. Well, the Nvidia ones are anyway ;)
 
been downloading for ages! damn vigin media and there throttling of my downloads!
 
Meh i'll just wait for WU to kick in, as it will probs be less than the 1900mb's for that ISO.
 
lol, just did a quick manual check and its there, 73-892mb's. :)

Along with a couple of little hotfixes.
 
Ah was looking at the wrong DL link from the above. Its only 900mb not 1900mbs...

Anyway, the WU wont install.... :mad:

I have downloaded the update it took 3/4 of an hour on a 10 meg download speed and took about the same time to install it
