Even if the hashes are the same... Somehow, I'm still thinking that this is just a leak from the RTM branch and not the RTM itself. I've read some good points about this.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm I just Wonder....Is anyone SURE this so-called RC is in fact the RC? I mean just go to Windows Update. and run the update(s). I bet if it is REAL, and not some hack of the RP it will shut-down right away. Personally I am NOT going to take a chance that it is JUST a hacked version of the RP!

I think it MIGHT be in the RTM Escrow branch of development.

You hit that on the mark! I think you already know some of the headaches I ran into setting first a dual boot with the CP and later the problems with the RP especially following the PC Refresh option to see 7 added in automatically! Both versions immediately saw freeze ups when loading 7 from the 8 boot screen!

As for the leaks most of those are developer builds that got out likely by way of someone at a 3rd party site. Those are intended for advanced program developers and why so many ran into problems when trying to upgrade from the 7 beta and RC builds. Some may laced with malwares or simply unusable for the average desktop and are ill advised to begin with.
