Microsoft is surely still basking in the success of Windows 7, after the dismal performance of Vista. The last thing the company wants you to worrying about is the still far off specter of Windows 8.
The company appears to have, somewhat inadvertently, leaked out a rough release date for the upcoming version of the near ubiquitous PC operating system. In a post to its Dutch news site, a company representative wrote, “Microsoft is on course for the next version of Windows. But it will take about two years before Windows 8 [hits] the market.”
That seems to put it on-track for late-2012–you know, just before the coming Mayan apocalypse. It all seems to put the operating system in direct competition with Apple’s newly announced OS 10.7 Lion.
