Releases for 7

The first known build of Windows 7 was identified as a "Milestone 1 (M1) code drop" according to reports sent to TG Daily and has a version number of 6.1.6519.1 according to various reports. It was sent to key Microsoft partners by January 2008 in both x86 and x64 versions.[10][11] Though not yet confirmed by Microsoft, reviews and screenshots have been published by various sources.[12][13] Features described include Gadgets being integrated into Windows Explorer, a Gadget for Windows Media Center, the ability to visually pin and unpin items from the Start Menu and Recycle Bin, improved media features and a new XPS Viewer. Reports also indictate that a feedback tool included in Windows 7 lists some coming features: the ability to store Internet Explorer settings on a Windows Live account, new versions of Calculator, Paint and WordPad that use Windows Presentation Foundation, and a 10 minute install process.[14] UI changes are expected to appear in later builds of Windows 7, though there is already a bright bootscreen present, somewhat resembling pre-XP versions of Windows.
