True. It even will report when there is a new non-critical version
for the branch style currently installed if you have that option selected. But this doesn't solve the issue of knowing the other latest versions.

They have multiple 7.0 links. They don't give the full build number so it is harder to find. Here it is anyway: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?f...-B261-687E0082FEB8&displaylang=en(*)
The download center is also updated later than the main site (useually). It always takes a couple of days. But after that, the latest version can always be found on the download center
(and even in more installer versions than available on the main site; the main site often only has a specific OS installer, while the download center always also has the complete installer versions)...
