According to Geeksmack and Neowin, Microsoft will officially announce the final Windows 7 RTM build on July 13th. The date also coincides with Wzor’s unconfirmed rumor last month. Coincidentally, this is the same day the WPC09 (Worldwide Partner Conference) takes place in New Orleans.

Microsoft originally announced that they were set to hit the RTM milestone approximately in a month and a half’s time from June. They also said the build would be sent out to Microsoft partners during the last two weeks of July. The latest build is Build 7268 and was compiled on July 1st – 6.1.7268.0.win7_rtm.090701-1900. Windows 7 is set for General Availability on October 22nd.

Update: Microsoft stated in a Press Release that the Windows 7 RTM code will be delivered to partners in the second half of July. That should be sometime from July 15-31.
