Windows 7 reaches Build 7070
link: original article - section: windows
Screenshots of build 7070 have leaked, but Microsoft has also already compiled build 7071 and build 7072. Apparently Redmond is getting ready to choose an RC-Escrow build.
Two days ago, details of Windows 7 build 7068 leaked. Now, screenshots of build 7070 have arrived, and the story goes a little something like this: "I just came back from Microsoft, since my Dad works there. He works for in the SQL server division and here are some screenshots I took about the new build 7070. I don't know if there is anything new to this build, but they installed it yesterday, so it probably will be leaked soon. They said it was a major update; maybe not to the user interface but more to the Kernel. Just letting you guys know :P"
Of course, there's no "major update to the kernel" but the screenshots do look legitimate. The screenshot above is just one of three. You can see the other two over at Facepunch forums. I've also done a little digging and found a few build strings since 7068:
* 6.1.7069.0.winmain.090323-1630
* 6.1.7070.0.winmain.090324-1853
* 6.1.7071.0.winmain.090326-1750
* 6.1.7072.0.winmain.090327-1845
