Would the build be stable enough to use?

Cannot comment for that, however comments told that the build is six months old.

I predict that it will be almost a clone of Windows 7 considering how early it is.

If they release Windows 8 in the next year it will be a fail...people just got used with Windows 7, in fact their are still people who use XP .....
As for this "leak" i bet it's just a cheap imitation of Windows 7.

Well the picture from the link was there and right its a clone like windows 7, according to the comment also features on that build may not yet include like smart screen filter, built PDF reader and others.

I've manage to get my hands on : Windows 8 Build 7850
The build was compiled on 22nd September 2010 and is the Milestone 1 build.
This leak is quite old (~6 Months) - It dosen't have have anything fancy into it : new setup UI, the new Welcome Screen and the new Aero Basic UI.
Indeed, it's very similar to a stock Windows 7 - the only major change is the Windows Live integration in the superbar.

Well maybe in the next leaks
