Windows 7 released by August?

Before I left for my work saving and fixing computers, I started the massive download for Windows 7 RC 1. The download is nearly 2.5 GB! This weekend, I will install it on my laptop and give you a full report in the upcoming weeks.

This news story indicates that we might see the commercial release of Windows as early as August of this year. I want to see Microsoft release a quality product, but I also think it would be a good move on their part to try and release Windows 7 in time for the 2009 school year and have momentum going into the holidays. But then again, we are talking about Microsoft who seems to stumble more lately than soar.
