I was looking at Windows 7 and how to Upgrade from Vista to Windows 7, If I get Windows 7 RC, can I upgrade to Windows Final version. What If I had to reinstall? After some intensive googling, I came with gollowing courtesy of Eric Jarvis' Post Here
CTP - community technology preview - this is just a point in time release to get more bits into hands of customers between beta releases, for those hard core people who want to be as close to the action as possible.
Beta - these releases get special attention from the QA Team, we plan for them, treat as a milestone, etc.
RC - release candidate, this is the one we hope will become an RTM. Testing additional RC candidates can get to be like a baseball game in extra innings. When we finally say "ship it" everyone celebrates.
RTM - release to manufacture, this is the RC that gets shrink wrapped.
Cheers.

MVC - Model View Controller
Recently while working on a Project I came across Navitaire Flight booking system and realised they used a fairly interwoven system of MVC and a WCF services layer.
Here are my 2 cents worth on MVC pattern.
MVC is an architectural pattern used in software engineeering. Successful use of the pattern isolates business logic from user interface considerations, resulting in an application where it is easier to modify either the visual appearance of the application or the underlying business rules without affecting the other.
MVC Pattern
The whole Navitaire application is based on the MVC or Model View Controller Pattern; also known as MVP or Model View Presenter design pattern.
Model
The Model is responsible for managing application data and state, and communicating with a server. When an operation is performed on a model that changes the data or state of an application, the model notifies all of its consumers.
View
The View represents the presentation layer of an application. A view does not necessarily refer to a Windows form or a Web page and may not be visual at all. For example, a Web service or voice interface can be different views of the application that present the application data to the user.
Controller
The Controller provides validation, security enforcement and application workflow logic. For each user operation defined in an application there should be a controller method that is invoked that validates the data and security before invoking method calls on a model object. Logic related to application workflow can also be contained in the controller and may be dependent upon the active view.
As usual don't forget to leave comments. Thanks.

Anyway I am guilty of Blog philia this weekend. I will be back to my usual ramblings soon. Reading a book on WCF by Michelle Bustamante and some MS Architecture guidelines.
Catch you later.
