Tip: Click here to update all your PC's outdated driversIt was only a matter of time..
Not too long after Microsoft had released a developer build of the Windows 7 Milestone 1 release to a select few, review and opinion pieces started to leak onto Windows enthusiast sites by OEM employees or their beneficiaries.
So it's hardly surprising that now -just a few days later, the full naked DVD image has started to show up on a few torrent sites.
Most have been verified as fake and removed, and while we haven't been able to verify for ourselves if indeed the milestone has been leaked to the pirating community, it sure is stirring up a lot of interest in the past 24hrs!

are those torrents for real?
those torrents are fake dude
i am sorry-the people who frequent this site are either children with edd, or low iq
morons with acess to a keyboard. windows 7 is here and now. deal with it. the people
who just shelled out big bucks for the vista ultimate are feeling duped about now. 'what
do you mean vista is a turkey'? i just love uac! riiight! the people using vista are
little more than beta testers. microsoft realizes the next solid, stable os will take a
bit more effort. vista ain't it. not even close. vista is like an unwelcome pregnancy.
it should be aborted like windows me.

billy the kid, people have downloaded it. it's fake. yes windows 7 is in development,
everyone knows that. it was never a secret. but it is not here and now. it won't be here
until late 2009 to 2010 or later. looks like you're the moron for being baited into
believing all these fakes are real.
downloaded both the isos being offered both were completely blank.
will keep my
fingers crossed though, it is bound to leak eventually.
i dont have to download these iso's to know that they are fake. people lose their jobs
over things like this. yes windows 7 has been in development for over a year now and the
labs have some other work done that the m1 will not show. but microsoft will stop giving
code drops to oem's and tap partners who are suspected of leaking such material. there
will be no m1 leak, wait until beta 1 at the end of the year people. these zero byte file
and fake torrents are polluting our bandwidth and making it hard for legitimate people to
surf blogs and forums without coming across this type of crap.
q. what is the expected timeline for the availability of windows 7?
a. we are
currently in the planning stages for windows 7 and expect it will take approximately 3
years to develop.

in other words
they haven't even started on it yet, how could there be a leaked iso!? stop being so
gullible. lmao
no one said vista wasn't real, they said this leak is a fake. as were all the supposed
screenshots and videos. there's a subtle difference. everybody knows there will be a new
version of windows after vista. i mean, duh!
oops, i meant "no one said windows 7 wasn't real". i wish you could edit posts on
here. :)
the milestone 1 code drop is %100 percent real. i have personally seen it running on the
computers in the offices of no less than 3 devs at microsoft. also, the leaked screenshots
and video are exactly the same as what i saw, it looks almsot exactly the same as vista at
this point. if you don't believe me, i don't care, but please, the line about planning
stages is complete bull.
hahaha. billy the kid make me laugh. he/she probably too childish to think or couldn't
read properly. no one is saying windows 7 is not real here. everyone know it is coming.
they are just saying "the torrent spreading around right now is fake." which it is,
they are just a bunch of zero byte image file.
yo kid, let me quote what mark
said again, hopefully you'll read properly this time.
"billy the kid, people
have downloaded it. it's fake. yes windows 7 is in development, everyone knows that. it
was never a secret. but it is not here and now. it won't be here until late 2009 to 2010
or later. looks like you're the moron for being baited into believing all these fakes are
real."
pay attention to capital. i emphasize it for you making sure you can
read.
the comment automatically turn all my capital to lowercase. sorry. let me just quote
that part of mark again
"yes windows 7 is in development, everyone knows
that."
well. at the mean time, every iso i found are all zero type image.
haven't encounter the milestone yet.
if the kernel (winmin) allows running vista's xserver + winodows manager then what's
the prob ?
just my 2 cents but why cant it be possible for a leaked version of win7 to hit the net?
from what i have heard and understood while in the making of vista, im sure they have
allready begun windows 7 right along with vista. so why is it so hard to believe? im not
saying it the real deal just wondering is all.
i like the fact that people are flaming vista. because the fact that vista was poor when
it was released and is getting better as times goes on. but their are hardly 2 computers
the same around the world , so each piece of hardware ovbiosly has to have drivers , all
the hardware that are available for windows pc's, well there are thousands. vista runs
better on a computer that was built to run it , not a upgrade from xp. i hate apple , but
just saying that it is alot easier for the apple os, because they have few computers and
few hardware out there available.
ozzy, the reason why it's so unbelievable is that the security in these sort of places
is tight, and people can not only be terminated from their jobs, but also sued against for
leaking it. would you risk your job and livelyhood to make a few betakiddies happy that
they have got an early, barely touched release?
i read an article today about
ea's testing and security. they have multiple checkpoints to get in/out, security cards
for clearance, and the translators from english to other languages aren't even allowed to
see what they're translating - they're just giving a setting and some audio. i'm sure
microsoft are just as strict about their security as far as their new releases are
concerned.
i know someone who works for microsoft and is in the process of developing windows 7. the
security these isnt tight. you have cards, theres fingerprint readers but you do what you
want, whenever you want. by this i mean you take as much breaks have as much
