It appears that Amazon has Windows Vista available for pre-order on their website. Personally, I’m going to wait for general OEM availability of the Vista Ultimate DVD-ROM, rather than shelling out for the retail-boxed version.
The release date for Windows Vista has been scheduled for January 30, 2007. I’ll leave it up to Microsoft to meet that deadline 😉
Want to get your hands on Vista Build 5536 (pre-RC1)? Well, click here. Hopefully, you’re one of the first 100,000 people to get your hands on it. After that, you can bet it will end up on various BitTorrent sites worldwide for your downloading pleasure (2.58 GB).
Update (9/7/2006):
Click here to download Vista Build 5600 (RC1). I recommend using the provided Download Manager to download the 2.52 GB DVD image.
