In case you have not heard, Windows 8 has been released on MSDN and Technet. Volume License users will be able to download and deploy Windows 8 today. Expect a bunch of OEM vendors to release their offerings in the coming few weeks.

For all the information on Windows 8 feature set, visit the Release Preview site here – http://windows.microsoft.com/en-AU/windows-8/release-preview. Or download the product guide here – http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=251529

I have been using this OS for the past few months and it is a solid product. My wish is that third party vendors will get on the bandwagon and upgrade their applications sooner than later. For those using Windows XP, this is the time to update your 10 year old operating system.

Expect Windows Server 2012 to be released on MSDN and Technet in the next few days.
