Windows 8 on its way....

Windows 8 on its way....

Reports from Microsoft suggest the Windows 8 will reach RTM in early August and should be available to the public in late october.

The even better news is that Microsoft seem to have taken a page out of Apples book and are offering an upgrade to the new PROFESSIONAL version for approximatley £25.00.  Which is a massive reduction on previous upgrade licenses.

It seems that you can upgrade from XP, Vista or Windows 7.

This will certainly be very popular with consumers and developers who are designing apps for the new Windows store.
