The Windows 7 release candidate was available on MSDN and TechNet since last week, Microsoft was inundated with insane demand and their download service encountered many problems leaving users frustrated.  Hopefully Microsoft has the bugs figured out and they will be able to keep up with demand this time around. 

To download the Windows 7 RC, click on the hyperlinked text above.

Lifehacker has a great informational article on how to install Windows 7 once you download the ISO image.

If you have problems with the Java downloader from Microsoft, right click save-as the following direct links to the Windows 7 RC:

  • IE8 now has address bar searches similar to Google Chrome, these searches query Google for results by default

IE8 will be the default browser for Windows 7.  Searching via the address bar will continue to grow consistently, especiallywhen Windows 7 rolls out.  Google will stand to see another major bump in traffic.  Don’t you want to be on the top now more than ever?

  • Google as a search engine is still a warhorse that is unlikely to be going any where, anytime soon!

With Google getting companies like Microsoft to default users to their search engine results within their browsers which will be pre-installed on machines, your Google page rank just got that much more important.
