Microsoft’s new OS Windows 8 in 2012

Microsoft has already started working on the next Windows version which is codenamed as "Windows 8" at the moment.

"Stephen Chapman" @ Microsoft Kitchen posted a Windows roadmap which clearly shows that Windows 8 is scheduled to release in 2012. Microsoft has also mentioned in past that it'll try to keep a fixed 3 years gap between future Windows releases and it seems that they are really working hard to maintain this gap.

As you can see in the above roadmap, Windows 8 is mentioned as "Major Release" and is scheduled for 2012. The most interesting thing to notice in this rodamap is that Windows 7 is mentioned as "Release Update".


Why wait for Windows 8 when you can transform your Windows 7 / Vista / XP to Windows 8?
