Is Microsoft limiting the release candidate, like it tried to do with the beta? No. Windows 7 RC will be available in both 32- and 64-bit editions. Where do I get it? The public download will be posted to the Windows 7 site, Microsoft said. Of course, if you subscribe to Microsoft Developer Network (MSDN) or TechNet, you've been able to grab it since last Thursday afternoon (after the now seemingly inevitable snafu on Microsoft's end). (And we all know how well that worked out.) Microsoft has declined to say exactly when it will throw the switch that day, but back in January, it originally pegged the beta's start time as noon, Pacific. When can I download the RC? That's easy: Tuesday, May 5. And we have the answers, most of them anyway. But where can you get it, how do you install it, what do you need to run it and can you upgrade from the beta or from Vista or from XP? So you'll want to grab a copy and try it out, decide whether you'll - finally - ditch XP or give up on Vista.
