Download Vista RC2 now

Gamers on the bleeding-edge (read: will sell blood for DirectX 10 video card) can download Windows Vista RC2. Microsoft says that this will be the final public update before Vista ships to retail; freeloaders, this is your last chance.

Vista claims to be a significant update for gamers, but we're staying skeptical until its final release. Microsoft wouldn't hype DirectX 10 and other game technologies just to sell copies, would it? No, rhetorical us, that's cynical.

Use a product key from the RC1 installation, or get a new one from that site if you're new to the Vista expedition. Vista hasn't destroyed any of our computers, but be sure to back up important data or run Vista on a non-critical PC.
