    Vista Leaked

    The Inquirer is reporting that Vista has been leaked on to various warez FTP and torrent sites. It's even appeared before being released on the MSDN subscribers download site. So presumably this is an internal leak at MS?

    Not much use without a code though. Is it likely to work with the RC1 code? I'd doubt it as the Beta codes didn't work with RC1

    Cheers, I did *ahem* investigate it on a site I know and there is already a "Vista RTM activation crack" available already. 8O

    Yup, spotted that one as well. Bypasses the activation process for Vista so you can enter basically any key and it'll activate. :P

    Re: Vista Leaked

    Why oh why would someone *want* to get Vista even illegally?

    Where was that site again....

    Edit: Joking Bill. I still want to come and play Golf next week with you. OK. I won't bring my MacBook Pro with me this time and show you how cool OS X is. Yes...I know it upsets you ;-)

    Re: Vista Leaked

    I know that the global release is Jan 30th, but when are us in the Microsoft School's Agreement likely to be able to get it? I can give Ramesys a call on Monday, but maybe someone on here already knows.

    EDIT: I've just seen that there is a special thread on this, so please ignore :P
