That's not the end of the month Jeff. 2/29 is the end of the month!

Jeff is on rabbit time which is a whole lot different then the rest of the world. . .

Hyperactive wabbit! :)

Brian: 18th and the 26th - I put you in for both, but redlined the 26th. Someone else might want that date (if you prefer the 26th, I'll redline the 18th)
futurdreamz: 27th - Done
jeff: You already have the 16th and the other dates you chose (17th, 24th) are already taken.

it's enough just to keep the table up to date without multiple choices and multiple members
so to keep it simple: one date, one member.
when there gone, they're gone

that's just for the table I maintain - post any and all predictions on the thread for prosperity.

The winner gets .....
a FREE Win7 or Win8.1 upgrade to Win10 for up to one year after Release to Manufacturing!

Oh, good I was truly worrying that we would really have to pay an arm and leg for a TP copy. . .

That's why I picked the last Friday. Based on previous releases it seems that Microsoft likes to release the new build on a Friday so they already have some bug reports waiting for them the next day instead of twiddling their fingers for a couple days while the beta players are working and thus not playing with the betas as much. I'm pretty certain that it will for sure be the Second last Friday in February, but that's taken so I'm gabbing the 27th.

Does a new build involve downloading a new .ISO and reinstalling ? (just getting started, be nice)

Nope. Is done straight through Windows Update. It should even do it automatically, rebooting the computer when you're sleeping so you come back to the latest and greatest.

@Slartybart I predict a new build on Friday the 13.

Hubby's birthday!

I'll pick the 13 too

But Lee, you have to pick a date in the pool to win.

Oh and the FREE upgrade is the RTM not the TP

Wynona said:

Wow, you really did mess up the FREE part! I'm glad you caught it, because I'd have held yer feets to da fire!

Yeah, that mistake would have cost me dearly, deary

Thanks again!

futurdreamz answered part of this.

You need to download the 9926 ISO and let Windows update do it's thing. The rollup is just that - no new ISO, just Windows Update on top of an install. The rollup is small, so it's really no big deal.
