I’ve gotten a few questions recently about the availability of VPCs with more recent builds (than Beta 2).  Brian Kelly has come to the rescue in his typical style.  He’s put together some VPCs with the Release Candidate on them.  They also have some sample data so that you don’t have to create it yourself to see how it works.
