| Do I need to do a clean install or can I simply 'upgrade' to build 7600

Pretty sure it needs to be a clean install.
It's what MS recommends anyway.

It's possible. Just copy the Windows 7 RTM media to your hard drive, open up the 'sources' folder and find 'cversion.ini'. Modify the 'minclient' value to your build number.
Well, MS did set build 7233 (or something around that) and above to be directly upgradeable, as with Vista, so I think it's alright. Still, personally, I don't do this kind of upgrading, starting fresh with a reformat and install is my preferred method.

I'm still running RC1 7100...
What's the latest version and what's new in it compared to RC1?
In the latest version, are there Legal Keys, or are they cracked and illegal?
Where can I get the latest version or is it a leaked version?

| More stable, all bugs are cleaned out. It runs faster also (or at least it leaves that impression).
