    What's the difference between build 7000 and this build ??
    Do you recommend to upgrade / install build 7022 ?

    I can now 100% confirm the files extract with 0 errors using 7zip....

    I have just installed and its 100% real and working, no doubt.

    Thanks again for the links SoLaR :)

    First thing i noticed was the mp3 patch is already included, then obviously IE8 RC1, as some others say the start menu search seems faster (or is that cos i just done a fresh install with 0 apps)... can't see much else different, an ugly and long build number in wateremark lol xD

    For those wondering the windows update works fine, also the 7000 keys...

    Lol, yeah i have a very slow connection also.. the build seems better.

    Still not fixed the creative driver issues though with my card but the old fix i used (kxproject drivers) works again :)

    I was pleased to see the mp3 patch already included as i normally run it from a standalone install right after i install build 7000, no need this time :)

    I never used IE so i can't really comment about the new version.

    The themes seem to of slightly changed, the uk theme had blue glass in 7000 now it has tan glass, im sure the other themes are slightly different also.

    The gadgets screen looks different, an ewwwww the standard clock is bigger than before and bigger than other gadgets, i have just downloaded a new one.

    As i've read in another thread you don't need to install this build if you are using build 7000

    I've read, that some companies are still working with Windows NT 4.0 ;)

    I don't have so much time, to test a new build nearly every two weeks.

    So far so good - this beta feels a little more polished...
    Just a little thing changed in the theme here, something changed there... icon tweaked a little, background changed... miss the classic start menu thou.. well - time to adopt to new things :)
     
    Stop hovering to collapse... Click to collapse... Hover to expand... Click to expand...

    There are many small bug fixes and tweaks and yes it feels better. I won't be going back.. (unless i find something terrible, but surely that would of happened by now)
