As a reminder, today is the last day that you can download the Windows 7 RC off of Microsoft's official website. Keep in mind, that Microsoft will still supply product keys after today, so there's no need to worry. The RC will begin its shut-down-every-two-hours routine starting on March 1, 2010; the RC will expire on June 1, 2010. You can always download the Windows 7 RTM if you want to take the illegal route, but you didn't hear that from me.

I talked briefly about the "fake" RC's being distributed on torrents yesterday. Well, lucky for most of us the real RC has supposedly just been leaked to torrents. It's build 7100 and it is now available in 32-bit and 64-bit. The ISO files should be about 2.36GB (32-bit), and 3.05GB (64-bit), so it's not entirely huge. Go and check it out now, although it hasn't been officially confirmed. It probably is the real thing, so just go right ahead and start downloading it. Yes, the fake downloads have been pulled off the torrents, so it's smooth sailing from here.
