Recently, Build 7068 of Windows 7 was leaked online, and now we get a couple of screnshots of Build 7070. Check them out below, as well as the post made by the leaker.

I just came back from Microsoft, since my Dad works there. He works for in the SQL server division and here are some screenshots I took about the new build 7070.

I don’t know if there is anything new to this build, but they installed it yesterday, so it probably will be leaked soon. They said it was a major update; maybe not to the user interface but more to the Kernel. Just letting you guys know.

According to Steven Sinofsky, Microsoft will not launch a Windows 7 Beta 2 version, instead going directly to Windows 7 Release Candidate, which means it will be pretty much the final version.

The Windows 7 RTM (Ready To Manufacture) version will probably be released in the third quarter of 2009, while the release will probably be in October.

While initially, the signup period for Windows 7 Beta was set to end on January 24, Microsoft announced recently that now it’s extended until February 10.

It’s the second time that Microsoft decides to extend this period. The first time was the change from a set number of downloads to unlimited downloads until January 24. Now, the limit date is February 10.
