So, I am not sure what MSFT thinks. I got the final SP3 from a torrent site and I believe it is the legitimate RTM final version. Hopefully, someone else will confirm my findings or not. I will have to download the official SP3 from MSFT website after Apr 29th to see if I get the same result or not. Guys,

Well, we will know when the Microsoft's filenames and size appears on MSDN. Well, there plenty of references in the ISO that says “SP2″, that’s why I assume it may not be a Microsoft release.

It is not just an integrated version as if you compare it to an integrated version many more files have been updated/removed. It has all the signs of a Microsoft release. I suspect that just VLK versions will not allow a blank product key. The integrated SP1 ISO seems to be a legit leak from MSFT.
