Selvom der kun er 10 dage til, at Windows 7 RC1 kan downloades af alle til test (og af TechNet og MSDN abonnenter den 30. april), så taler Microsoft allerede, om Windows 8.
Dette kan ses i et jobopslag den 14. april, hvor Microsoft skriver flere ting, om Windows 8. Det siges nærmere præcist, at Windows 8 vil understøtte features, som "cluster support", samt "one way replication". Windows 8 kernen vil ligeledes blivet omskrevet således at perforamnce øges dramatisk, samt med innovativ teknologi, revolutionere adgangen til filer, der er spredt over flere forskellige lokationer.
Citat:
"For the upcoming version of Windows, new critical features are being worked on including cluster support and support for one way replication. The core engine is also being reworked to provide dramatic performance improvements. We will also soon be starting major improvements for Windows 8 where we will be including innovative features which will revolutionize file access in branch offices."
