MD5:94276421 FA963122 A4E434D3 B14FDC01
NO Digital Signature!!!
this file exists on many mirrors (*.onlinedown.net,*.pchome.net,*gorge.net,*cnbb.co m.cn)
the both files has same files. but this file has modified installer and no digital signature
if you installed this build. uninstall it and get the original or wait for MS to release for the public

watch out! and use MD5 checking tool (google for md5check.exe) to make sure its the original file!
and use file properties to make sure the file has Digital signature

They are same except the last bits which are digital signature. No other difference.

refraction is on a distinguished road

i think id prefer using the digitally signed version, any exploits or something could have been opened in the unsigned one, least with the signed one i can guarentee that theres nothing dodgy about it
