The rumored Windows Blue will be launched very soon. However, it will be officially called Windows 8.1 instead of Windows Blue.
The Public Preview Edition will be release on June 26, 2013 on the Windows Store. However, this will have no support. Windows 8.1 is not merely a Service Pack (SP) – it is more than that. It aims to provide continuous updates for Windows customers to create a rich experience for the users.
Julie-Larson Green, the one in-charge of the Windows division at Microsoft, made this announcement on http://www.buildwindows.com and other information appeared on http://blogs.windows.com
Windows 8.1 will also be available for Windows RT – those that are running on ARM platform. It is also hinted that Windows 8.1 would probably bring back the Start Button and Boot to Desktop option due to several feedbacks that customers send to Microsoft. In fact, it is one of the most complained things on Windows 8. Hopefully, after the release of Windows 8.1 customers will finally make the upgrade from XP and Vista.
