Windows 7 Build 7068 Dogfooded, Leaked Screenshots

Forget Build 7057, the Release Candidate branch of Windows 7 has evolved all the way to Build 7068. Following the availability of Beta Build 7000, the Redmond company has been largely mute on the development process of Windows 7, although it became clear through leaked releases and information on development milestones such
as 7022, 7048, 7055, and 7057, that the software giant was producing a steady flow of interim builds, some of which it was serving to its close partners and sharing with select testers. Windows 7 Build 7068 is now being dogfooded over at Microsoft, and the leaked screenshots accompanying this article and coming from a company employee prove that the software giant continues to make progress toward the first fully fledged Release Candidate of the next iteration of the Windows client.

Heh, I literally just finished installing 7068 and I hear that 7070, 7071, and 7072 builds are being considered for the RC-escrow coming in April. Those builds are supposed to have significant back-end updates as well. Oh well.

Theoneneo815542d ago

so im guessing we can expect to see windows 7 in late summer early fall?

TheIneffableBob5542d ago

Available to manufacturers in late 2009 and at retail in early 2010.

Kakkoii5542d ago

Public release is in August/September.

jtmill075542d ago

I do like where windows 7 is headed.

velaxun5542d ago

I've been using it for a while and so far I love it. I had one BSOD when I first started using it due to a conflict between uTorrent and AVG, but I switched to Avast and everything's good. I find it much faster than Vista, and I used to be a huge vista fan!

Intel Core2Duo E6600 2.4ghz
4GB Ram
320GB HDD
Geforce 8800 GT

startup time in 7 is ~20 seconds, Vista (with all the same programs running) was ~1 minute....

Well that sucks. Seems they want more online trash. I'd rather of had the sequel if it was single player

MrNinosan2h ago

What online trash games did PS Studios release last 10 years?

Notellin4m ago

The past has nothing to do with the future. This is such a terrible argument. Everyone knows about their current live service push.

It would be a shame if it was true that Hermen never gave the franchise a chance simply because he didn't like it and they already had a "Zombie" game with TLOU.

NaughtyDog are most likely moving onto a new IP next so it would have been the perfect time to do it.

Here's where xbox steps in and releases state of decay 3 day and date on ps5.

Days gone 2 was canceled before Herman was in charge. That happened like 4 years ago.

vfl52357m ago

4 years ago he was head of Playstation Studios. He would've probably had a hand in the cancelation.

Man two seconds of research could have saved you from this comment. Amazing work Grilla you fit in with the uniformed N4G community who speaks before verifying anything that they say.

excaliburps2h ago

Yep. Kind of weird since it wasn't a sales flop, no?

I know we have to take what Ross says with a grain of salt since we're hearing just one side of the story, but even so, the game wasn't bad at all. Heck, it's my brother's favorite last-gen game from what I recall.

The amount of zombies on screen, imagine that with the PS5 and SSD? That would be insanely fun!

Grilla1h ago

Most copies were sold on sale. Not enough ppl bought it at full price. I paid 20$ for it 6 -7 months after release.

Notellin0m ago

Yeah never believe the creators side, but the corporate/big business side is always the one to believe.

What a bootlicker statement.

P_Bomb2h ago

Well I don’t want 10 live service games, but they have no problem doing that lol. Ugh.

CrimsonWing691h ago(Edited 1h ago)

Oh great so we only get what the big wigs want… y’know, the people that really have their fingers on the pulse of what their consumers want. Faaaaantastic!
