It appears to have been leaked ahead of the downloadable MSDN release and can be found on various torrent sites and the FTPs of unscrupulous individuals.

Also to note is that installing from a previous version of Windows will not work stating a read error, suggesting that the release is far from perfect.

We certainly don't condone the download or use of pirated software, but it is interesting this download has come prior to any actual official release from Microsoft.

Why would anybody download this?
