Without sounding like Namronia etc, I do know people (IRL) who have close links with Microsoft and have verified that as the legit release

EDIT: This is uploaded, sitting in the Uploads account. I have a direct link to download if wanted

2ND EDIT: winver

Image

3rd edit: Build 5512, packed on 13th April 2008. ~316MB. Later than all the RC's that everyone have been claiming are newer than this.

I've seen some performance gains...but I don't really use my computer to its full potential. I'll put it on the family PC soon (which is very slow on bootup but fine with most other stuff) and post back results.

And yet again, this is the legit RTM, some people have been saying otherwise

I think you have to wait a couple of days, the english usually leak first.

Does anyone have a TechNet or MSDN Subscription?

There should be the final SP3 .ISO Files in many languages in the Top Downloads Section.

Why don't you all just wait a few days until Microsoft release it, then you can download straight from them without the hassle of torrents etc, you'll be sure it's the RTM, and you can be sure it's untouched with no viruses etc in it
