Download Windows 7 Build 7068
This morning I downloaded a copy of Windows 7 build 7068 x86, formatted away build 7057 & installed this latest one.
Amazingly it only took 13 minutes to hit the desktop after the format & hitting the next button, including UN & PW.
13 minutes, that is a new record for me.
I use the public Beta key to activate it
Here are a few screen shots

The WinSAT Videos are improved, the fountains are still there but now there is several Bike Racing quick videos in various formats.
Also WinSAT is calling this one RC-0.91, build 7057 was RC-0.9

Good, I believe you
I only have Starter wallpapers from 7048 so believed that guy
I didn't install Starter of 7068 either, sounds like it got even more boring.

Re: Download Windows 7 Build 7068
I installed Build 7068 and it was the slowest install I have encountered thus far with Windows 7.
I tried booting to the DVD first and the install seemed to hang, so I rebooted and it came up with the message that the install had failed and it was restoring my system to its previous state, which it did.
I then tried to install from within a previous install of Windows 7 but to another partition, and it was taking so long at the finishing part that I once again stopped it because I thought my disk was bad and it had hung.
Finally I rebooted, with the DVD as the first boot device, and I was determined to let it finish no matter how long it took, it took at least twice as long as I remember the other installs taking, but it did finish
It does seem like they fixed the system ratings part especially the HD rating part, as it rated my Raid array drives at 5.9, where one of the original versions rated the Raid drives at like 2 or 3 or something crazy like that.

@ TestMySpeed.com
http://www.testmyspeed.com/
*I'm paying for 10 Down & 2 UP, down a bit also..
From Vista x86 through the same router but IE7:
I ran the Vista test 2x & both the same, what happened to the UP speed.
