Microsoft on Friday has confirmed the Windows 7 Release Candidate release date as May 5th 2009. This confirmation comes about a week after a Microsoft slip-up leaked the release date.
Brandon LeBlanc on a Microsoft blog said that Windows 7 RC1 will be release early to MSDN and Tech Net subscribers on April 30th 2009. The public will be able to get the Release Candidate on May 5th. He also made the point of saying he had eggs for breakfast.
Brandon LeBlanc failed to reveal if Windows 7 RC will be available for download for a limited amount of time or if there is a limited amount of downloads allowed.
Microsoft has said that testers will not be able to upgrade to RC1 from Beta. Microsoft recommends you download to Windows Vista and upgrade to Windows 7 RC1, or that you format your drive and install.
It has been leaked that Windows 7 RC1 will be available only in English, German, Japanese, French and Spanish versions.
