As I am an Advanced Member at Beta Archive, I can confirm that Windows 8 Build 7959 is leaked on the BA Server. Here are the details from Andy an administrator and founder of BA who posted the details.

Note from Admin. riso:
This is a pretty buggy build, so you all know. Unless you need x64, 7955 is the better build so stay with that version for now.  Btw Build 7959 is based on Windows 8 Server vNext.


Update: Here is a torrent which you can download. Enjoy!

Anyone give this a whirl yet?  It defaults to logging in as Administrator but requires a new password.  The ones I tried all error out with: "value provided for the new password does not meet the length, complexity, or history requirements of the domain".

Any ideas on what kind of password is needed?
