So, the Windows 7 Release Candidate (build 7100) has shown up for MSDN Subscribers. (Keep looking here if you want the public RC – it will show up on 5th May).
I decided to go for a clean install, and then reinstall the apps and migrate my data across, rather than bodge an upgrade from the beta, and I’m glad I did.
OS install time was very quick (less than 30 minutes), and I’m back to fully functional in less than half a day. As usual, the VS2k8, TFS and SP1 was by far the slowest part of the process.
So far, everything seems fine, apart from a one-time MSN Home Page / IE8 crash that is new-for-this-build.
