It's not officially released yet, it's still a beta.

Yeah, I know.
It is on the way though. It will be released.
So I would like to be able to choose Windows 7.

I'm not sure what the dwbuildnumber should be, I can't find that
information anywhere...Anywho, this should work.

Austin and I were trying to work it out last night from the Win 7 beta
:-) Is there any software on Earth that looks specifically for Windows
7 as yet?

I had my roommate try CPU-Z, but it shows Windows Vista.

RC1 was 0x1b9c, I think. The final build number isn't known yet, of
course, which is also a reason why it doesn't make sense to add thise
before it's actually released.

That's why I didn't submit it to wine-patches ;-).
