Windows 7 RC

Today’s the day that the Release Candidate of Microsoft’s Windows 7 becomes available. Being a nerd, it’s downloading as I write this. But one thing already strikes me as being curious. Recently, on the Engineering Windows 7 blog, the Windows 7 team wrote that they wanted people to test the scenario of upgrading a Vista installation to a Windows 7 installation. Yet, the installation instructions make no mention of this scenario, the only option being recommended is a clean install (i.e. wiping out of the previous operating system and replacing it with a fresh installation of Windows 7).

 

What gives?
