Windows 7 RC April 10
The information that Microsoft will not release another beta of its new OS, but will soon be introduced by the release candidate of the “seven” in April, was generally confirmed. The Redmond team said that on April 10, Windows 7 RC1 will be available for both testers and the general public.
Thus, the new "update" OS will appear no more than three months after the release of the previous beta. And on RTM, which is scheduled for release in early 2010, Microsoft will have about eight months left. This once again confirms that the new OS was a success and did not require too much labor and man-hours for revision.
However, Microsoft’s plans to “speed up” the release of the new OS are not only related to its stability and speed. The company loses a lot of money due to the fact that the attitude to Vista is still very hostile, if not hostile, then very critical. And in order to continue making money in this area of its activity, Microsoft must offer the market a new “alternative” and good product. Such as Windows 7.
