A roadmap for Windows 8 has just made its appearance on the Internet. It seems to point towards commercialization in 2012. The road map speaks only milestones to be met in developing the operating system. According to the document, Microsoft is expected to complete the second milestone (Milestone 2 or M2) tomorrow and work on the third scheduled to begin next week.
M2 has asked for five months and it seems that M3 is the same. Specifically, if Microsoft meets its traditions, this means he finished in July for a first beta available at the Community Technology Preview to be held in September 2011. Unless an unexpected problem, Microsoft will release two beta, a release candidate and offer its new operating system RTM in mid-2012.
Dell's roadmap which spoke of a tablet 8 for Windows early next year seems to confirm a preview of the operating system at CES (see "Windows 8 tablets in 2012?" By our colleagues Tom's Guide).
