  Finally: Windows 7RC is "Upon Us"

  Finally Windows 7RC (Release Candidate) is out and we can finally try it, but, for those of you, my friends,who still hesitate, i can honestly say that this one is a keeper.

  Look at this suggested configuration and tell me is not even a little bit appealing:

  * 1 GHz or faster 32-bit (x86) or 64-bit (x64) processor

  * 1 GB RAM (32-bit) / 2 GB RAM (64-bit)

  * 16 GB available disk space (32-bit) / 20 GB (64-bit)

  * DirectX 9 graphics processor with WDDM 1.0 or higher driver

  If one thinks is ready to try it, please feel free to try this at: MICROSOFT.com

  Windows 7 RC from 5 May ?

  The subscribers of Microsoft TechNet and MSDN can already download the Windows 7 RC, and the general public will have access to it from May 5 - this news was published by Neowin.net website yesterday. The site even showed a screen-shot of the page from where to download Windows 7 RC:

  

  Well, this news is not true. This news is either a hoax, or some sort of marketing move ... The truth is that the download page on Microsoft TechNet shows no new version of Windows 7 RC. What could be the point ?

  Publisher: Please give us back our illegal weapons

  FUUUUUUNY story my mates. I laughed mylungs out today reading this :

  "Pens? Snore. T-shirts? Boring. Notepads? Been there, done that. Thinking up creative ideas for promotional tchotchkes can't be easy, but someone at uber-publisher Electronic Arts went a little too far last week.The game in question: Godfather II, a Grand Theft Auto-style adventure based on the famous movie. The offending item: a set of brass knuckles, mailed to video games journalists together with other goodies including a cigar, a silk handkerchief, and a book of matches. But while it nicely complements the game's mafiosi theme, it also had the unfortunate side-effect of turning recipients of the mailing into criminals, as mere possession of brass knuckles is illegal in many states and can carry hefty penalties.

  After blog GamePolitics expressed its consternation, the publisher began a flurry of hush-hush phone calls to arrange the return of the weapons. EA declined to comment beyond expressing a desire to assist journalists in proper disposal of the items." Talk about how dum' can u get . By the way I finished this game and is not all bad, is just released to quick. If you are not a fan of the series, and i include here the movies to, i suggest you NOT to buy it.
