no shit?

How long until you can put it up on a torrent site for me?
I might call a couple of places down under, but I doubt it's landed in the country yet.
How the hell do they go from release candidate to arriving on some one's doorstep in less then 5 days?

I suspect it'll download an update as soon as it's installed, i.e. the shipped discs are probably pre RC1

Or maybe all that is inside the box is a card with a url to download RC2 plus new content?
On a serious and related note - this might not go down well with people that bought the boxed version or update to avoid downloading anything!

Anyone know if there's any reason to upgrade from the Live 7 boxed Suite to Live 8 boxed suite?
I'd really like to save the $30 if possible.
and WTF?? When will they update the sight?

Woot!
I just confirmed that my free upgrade is ready to be downloaded!
So here's a question for folks that have been testing or folks that already have the new package:
Should I expect any bugs or performance issues if I download today? Is it better to wait for patches or should I just go for it?
