Windows 8 To Hit Store Shelves Late October, But Do People Care?

[zigzag3143]

The mystery is over! Up until now, we'd had no idea when Windows 8 was actually going to launch, aside from the incredibly vague "second half of 2012." Does that mean now? Or the holiday season? Halloween, perhaps? Now we know: Windows 8 will be hitting store shelves in October. However, that news breaks right as a report digs into the adoption rates of the various Windows 8 Previews and finds them far, far less used than their Windows 7 counterparts.

There's a RTM version rumored to be released sometime in August from what i've heard, and October as mentioned here the real public version, I guess we'll have to wait and see.

If I had a tablet, I'd go out and just buy Windows 8 with my own money, but i've never even used a tablet in my life lol.
