Contrary to Internet rumors Microsoft says Windows 7 has not yet reached the RTM milestone. Brandon LeBlanc of the Windows Team blog wrote, "We are close, but have not yet signed off on Windows 7. When we RTM you will most certainly hear it here. As we’ve said all along, we will RTM Windows 7 when it’s ready. As previously stated, we expect Windows 7 to RTM in the 2nd half of July."
Microsoft also issued a warning to anyone downloading alleged Windows 7 RTM builds: "More often than not, they contain a rather nice malware payload." and "Any builds you are likely to see on the web are either not the final bits or are laced with malicious code."
Looks like we will have to wait until at least July 16th, the first day of the second half of July for the Windows 7 RTM.
