RUMOR: WINDOWS 8 PUBLIC BETA TO LAUNCH LATE FEBRUARY
Sources close to Microsoft have revealed that the public Windows 8 beta will be released in late February of 2012.
The timing of the public beta launch has been the subject of much debate in the technology community. It is expected that Windows 8 will be released in 2012, but the exact expected date for the completion and shipping of the forthcoming operating system remains undisclosed. However, knowing the release time frame of the beta itself allows us to better project when the work should be done on the Windows 8 project.
Given the milestones for Windows 7 release to manufacturers, it is estimated that Microsoft will release Windows 8 to manufacturers around August, which give OEMs plenty of time to press DVDs and get the new OS onto hardware and in the supply pipe for the 2012 holiday shopping season.
