Release dates now known for some W7 markets
Microsoft has recently posted official Windows 7 release dates for different types of customers:
- MSDN and TechNet subscribers get the English version on August 6 and the other languages by October 1;
- If you’re an independent hardware or software vendor, you’ll also be able to get Windows 7 on August 6;
- Big customers with volume licenses who paid extra for Software Assurance can download Windows 7 in English starting on August 7;
- MS Partner Network members get the bits on Aug. 16;
