Microsoft announced today that both Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 have been finished and were sent to manufacturing. Both operating systems are on schedule for the expected release dates in October. Some users will be able to access the RTM version of Windows 7 on various dates in August. As a member of the MSDNAA, I will able to download on August 6, with the rest of the dates here. The upcoming version of Windows has also received feedback from several OEM partners, including Toshiba, which should help the OS in adoption more than Vista.
