Office 2010 RTM now available for download by Technet, MSDN subscribers

While you won't be seeing it on retail shelves just yet, Microsoft has flicked the Office 2010 switch on MSDN and Technet. This morning, the beta version was finally replaced with the RTM and both 32 and 64-bit downloads are now available.
The actual Office 2010 page on Microsoft's site seems to be undergoing some changes right now, as it's been inaccessible at times. It could also be that Microsoft servers are getting hammered -- as they have before -- and are having difficulty keeping up with requests.
Since the downloads are now up on Technet, that means you can probably find both of these files floating around various torrent sites...which, as always, we don't recommend you actually download. As Forrest said, "You never know what you gonna get."
If you're a subscriber, however, head on over to your downloads page and grab the final builds!
update: As Cassandra pointed out in the comments, customers can also now pre-order the retail version of Office 2010. Win!

Thanks for making everyone aware that Office 2010 has entered into RTM. This is the final milestone before the official release (very exciting stuff!). This also means, starting now, everyone can pre-order their retail copy of Office 2010. See the official RTM information here - http://blogs.technet.com/office2010/archive/2010/04/15/office-2010-reaches-rtm.aspx.

I have been loving the beta. My only complaint is that I can't seem to find a way to earn a free copy like I was able to do with the last Office release!
Keep up the good work.

I didn't see Project 2010 Server on MSDN. Is it coming?

I'm still kinda upset about the fact that people who were invited to the Technical Preview get nothing. We didn't even get the Release Candidate... or am I missing something?

Whoa, Microsoft actually reads download squad. Good thing you guys haven't been bashing them lately.

RTM FTW. Microsoft's really been nailing it lately, and I've been really liking the beta.
Now that my stupid school is actually giving out student email accounts I can happily look forward to picking up a copy of Pro Academic after the retail launch.
