7600 is a leaked build, not intended for public release. Some of the versions on the torrents are good. Others are cracked/malware infected.

From Technet/MSDN? I've been running 7100 since December, without issues.

I have the RTM iso burned and ready for when my SSD arrives (out of stock until EOM); and have no hesitation about installing it once that happens.

it was good in beta and RC, better than vista when it was officially out, and cuz its based on the vista core, anything that works with vista works with windows 7, that included COD4 and Crysis and so on, for some programs, u might need them to run in compatibility mode for vista because it will not recognize windows 7 as a compatible OS and say something like its only supported by xp and vista, or it needs vista or newer, though it is newer, it dose not no that, when u put it in compatibility mode for vista it will think its on vista, and work just great with 7

I am running the RTM and it has behaved beautifully so far. MS added in some additional drivers since 7100 as a lot of my system loaded automatically this time including my monitor which was only released in May.
