Since the beginning, Microsoft has never changed its guidelines in its communication: Windows 7 must come out three years after Vista. The consequence is that everyone looks formally the next system in January 2010. However, all signs point to an exit this year. And now a partner of the publisher throws a stone into the pond: Windows 7 could be available in September.
Ray Chen is the CEO of Compal, a Taiwanese manufacturer that produces laptops for Acer and HP. At a conference that brought together investors, Chen said that Microsoft would start selling Windows 7 officially at the end of September or early October. Merely to say is information, and the CEO of a major partner also chose to move his hypothesis. The index is great, because Compal is an important partner of Redmond. But what pledge to bring this challenge in the calendar?
The public beta was launched in January, but we knew that the build 7000 was prepared for a long time. So, when the public had raised his hands above, developers had changed industry and started working on the Release Candidate. According to Neowin, which obtained information from a source within Microsoft, the famous Release Candidate should happen for everyone April 10. If this is confirmed, it is impossible that flows eight months between the availability and marketing.
As a result, the period of September / October seems quite credible, especially because it would offer Windows 7 in full school year (or slightly after). For now, the various rumors point to the month of August for the arrival of the RTM (Release to Manufacture).
