Windows 7 RC1

I have downloaded and burned to DVD the just-released Windows 7 Release Candidate 1. All I need now is to find an old laptop (I'm sure I have enough parts to put together to get one up and running) which will support it. I am not in a hurry to do this, but will report back on my experience when I do.

FYI, this is the test version of the operating system destined to replace Windows Vista. The download is free, comes with its own key, and is good through June of 2010. After that date my copy will expire and I would have to pay for it, presumably at the going retail rate.
