Posted on Tuesday, April 24 2012 @ 15:33 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck

Microsoft confirmed a "near-final release preview" of Windows 8 will be published in the first week of June:

Windows unit President Steven Sinofsky made the announcement at a Windows Developer Days event in Japan.

The release preview follows two earlier test releases, including a “consumer preview” version issued in February.

Although Microsoft hasn’t confirmed a release date for the final version of Windows 8, it is widely expected to be released in time to arrive on PCs this fall.
