How to download and install latest (RC) version

With the Beta ending soon, I would like to install Logos 4 on a new machine.  I just took my old laptop and put Windows 7 on it.  So I have two questions that I would really appreciate help with:

  1. How do I download the latest version of L4?  I was a DVD installer, so I never actually downloaded it
  2. If I install the latest RC (2?) will it update to Gold when that happens?  I'd rather get started now than wait (I'm on vacation and have some time).

Also, do I have to do anything to have L4 on more than one PC?  I know it is possible, but I haven't done that yet.

Thanks!

    1. See below for download link, but if you have been downloading lately you should have it automatically

    2. It will update your current installation to the latest RC (4.0.3.2197), which I think will go Gold

    3. Install on another PC as follows:-

    Before you install backup your current L4 resources
    folder as it will save a lot of downloading!

        * backup your L4 Resource folder eg. to USB drive

          ...\Logos4\Data\{random}\ResourceManager\Resources

        * download Logos4 from  
          http://downloads.logos.com/LBS4/LDLS4Installer/Logos4Setup.exe
        * choose Custom installation if you want to
    install in a folder of your choice
        * Sign-on same as other PC
        * ASAP (when program finally opens) use
    Program Settings to stop Downloads++
        * Kill Logos4Indexer.exe in Task Manager
        * Type Scan c:\L4Resources (where you
    put them)     into Command bar & click
        * Close & Restart L4
        * Indexing should start.
        * Go to bed!
     
    ++ if you get a download you should Cancel it
    ...
    the standard installation path is:-
    XP
    - C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\Logos4
    Vista/Win7
    - C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Logos4
