I received confirmation early on Wednesday that build 7100 had been finalized and noticed early this morning that both the 32-bit and 64-bit flavors had been leaked to various P2P networks. Fake downloads had appeared yesterday but these were quickly removed. The latest downloads appear to be genuine.
A quick FAQ based on my Hardware 2.0 mailbag this morning:
Q: Are these latest leaked builds genuine?
A: They appear to be. I can only be 100% certain when I compare them to an official .ISO of the RC build from Microsoft.
Q: Is the leaked build 32-bit or 64-bit?
A: Both have been leaked.
Q: What are the build strings?
A: 7100.0.090421-1700
