19.11.2005How to: find the right Windows SDK for your needs
Several versions of the Windows SDK and earlier Platform SDKs (PSDK) are available. Generally, developers should use the most recent Windows
SDK, which supports several Windows operating systems. However, some developers have development requirements that call for an earlier
SDK. When deciding which release of the Windows SDK to use, consider which version of Windows you will be installing the SDK on, which version
of Windows and/or the .NET Framework you are targeting, and which version of Visual Studio you are using. Use the “
Which SDK is Right for Me?” table on the
Windows SDK Developer Center to help determine the best choice for your
needs.

While I have nothing new to add regarding RTM today, I do however have more precise information to give on when you will be able to
