    That's just wonderful, eloquent even, I'll bet you agonized for hours over finding just the right words to say. How did you even manage to get them in the right order? Boggles the mind, I tell you! Mum? Here we say, "yo mama"! In fact, we usually continue on the order of something like this, "yo mama gots a flat spot on her head from where the johns dey be putting they drinks on it". :haha: :wave:

    OK, you have to have seen Monty Python's, "The Argument Clinic", to appreciate this answer, because this is, "the right room for an argument".

    Reason two might be, because they deserve it.

    Basically, this thread continues because everyone seems to want, (or need), and feels they're entitled to, a free copy of Windows 7. How can we steal it? Does that seem like a endeavour that commands much respect?

    At the end of the day, it's like Tom Hanks said to Geena Davis, "there's no crying in baseball", and there's certainly no crying at Techspot.
  2. ok, now that i've installed both versions, windows 7 rc1 first, played with it for a few weeks, then windows 7 rtm. i can find VERY little, if anything that RTM has that RC1 does not have. In fact, RC1 version is the Ultimate version, and the RTM version is only the Enterprise version. The Ultimate version has a LOT more in it than the RTM Enterprise version. and again the question pops up, why would anyone want a smaller version of windows that is only good for three or four months (not including the hacks and microsoft approved metheds of extending it), to the Ultimate version wich is good until next year (april i think or something like that). Is anyone finding out the same here or am i alone in my findings? Thanks in advance.
  3. Hmm, interesting. Although I suppose Microsoft would end up restricting those resets at some point, or else everyone would just get an RTM iso off "somewhere" and just reinstall every 3 months...
