Last week we had reported about windows 7 build 7032 screenshots from our trusted source winfuture.de. We all are still speculating the probable date of windows 7 final release, but its for sure that its going to be earlier as it has been learned from internal source of Microsoft that windows 7 is stepped into release candidate.

Winfuture.de reported today that Windows 7 RC 1 can be expected by end of February. As per rumors MSDN/TechNet subscribers along with the other private beta testers, would receive the RC build after 27th February.

As per Winfuture.de selected pool of Microsoft testers have received latest Windows 7 builds 6.1.7048.winmain_win7rc1.090211-1625. The build number definitely suggest that its under RC branch but its unlikely that this build can be actual Windows 7 RC 1.
