A number of sources including Neowin have confirmed that the official Windows 7 RC build has been completed at build 7100.
The build string is 7100.0.winmain_win7rc.090421-1700 and compile date is at Tuesday April 21st, 2009. It was reportedly distributed to OEM partners and TAP Gold partners. It’s been two weeks since the last build leak of 7077, which was indicated as the RC escrow.
If all goes as expected, May 5th will be the date Microsoft releases RC to the public. MSDN and Technet subscribers should get their hands on it one week prior to that date.
The latest build compiled to date is 7115.0.winmain.090421-1650.

Er, typo? The first paragraph says “completed at build 7000″ – surely you mean 7100.
I meant 7100, thanks
Is the 7115 really a newer one than the 7100 RC or just another developement strang as it is on version 7077 and 7106?
Their is error in first line “Windows 7 RC build has been completed at build 7000″ should “Windows 7 RC build has been completed at build 7100″
Isn’t the latest build 7100 and not 7115, because 7100 was compiled at 17:00, while 7115 was compiled at 16:50?
The last build is
6.1.7116.0.winmain.090422-1816
