Windows 7 SP1 Builds Already? Huh?
(Follow me on Twitter: msftkitchen)
The Russian site wzor.info has posted a Windows 7 SP1 build labeled 7138.0.090523-xxxx-winmain_win7xxx_sp1_x. I had no idea they started compiling SP1 builds so early and I’m kind-of at a loss as to why, but that’s what happens when you don’t work at MS, isn’t it? You’re left in the dark… yeah, the dark. The cold, dark place outside Redmond’s pearly gates. *sigh* Anywho, click the image for a larger version:

PS – Thanks a bunch to deeper2k from thevista.ru for informing me!





haha, I can tell it’s a bluff! if its real they won’t have to delete the build string watermarks
makes sense actually. at this point, any fixes that have been cut from RTM would wind up in SP1, hence the SP1 branch.
Tony’s right. It would be bad if they hadn’t already started on SP1 because they had to start cutting features and fixes long before RC. Everything cut before RTM is considered for SP1.
One of the funniest things are that the site says “build 7.1…, when Win7 is 6.1, did you think about that?
I’m think that’s a fake.
