MSDN Subscriptions is pleased to bring you the Windows Vista July 2006 CTP (Build 5472).  The July CTP is now available from MSDN Subscriber Downloads.  We will be offering English and German x86 and x64 editions, as well as English Checked builds of each edition and the latest SDK and WDK to further your development efforts.

Tom Archer, Program Manager for the Windows SDK Tools and Build Environment, has put together a great blog post to help determine which of the current pre-release builds of Windows Vista is right for you.

With MSDN Subscriber Downloads now offering both Windows Vista Beta 2 and the new July 2006 CTP, I think you'll find his guidance helpful.  Check out his post at http://blogs.msdn.com/tomarcher/archive/2006/07/17/668572.aspx and download your preferred build from MSDN Subscriber Downloads today!

Best regards,

Seth Adams
