According to Wikipedia Windows are bringing out Windows 8 in 2010 is this true?
I'm going to guess a big fat no.
Windows hardly release an OS every year...
Microsoft, oli :8Quote:

You have got this wrong. If anything it will be in three years time which is 2012 like it has been reported on Neowin.

They still wouldn't bring out "Windows 8" next year. We have Windows 7 for a reason, you may say they have tuned it up a bit. But its much better then Vista itself was. (Performance, GUI and feature wise)Quote:

I mean its good sometimes but I wouldnt say its the most reliable source out there.
But yh I thought it was 2012 too.
big fat no sorry
Why would we want to risk another Vista situation when Windows 7 is awesome atm:P
I read it was actually 2012, which is slightly more realistic
They bring new OSes out ever 3-5 years.
Crikey, we've only just got Windows 7, and people are already talking about Windows 8??
MS probably started working on Windows 8 around when Vista was released ;)Quote:

As long as it's not beta software being developed on beta software (again) then it might not be too shabby. But for the time being I am downloading Chrome OS, not Windows 8:DQuote:

And a beta and RC would have been released to reviewers at least.
