rumors are mid late 2012 with a beta sometime at the start.With the currant increase of TV adds for Win 7 I dont think any change will be announced yet.

Sunnystaines You've been around this forum for many years now so surely any desktop which is capable of running W7 cannot be that old and is within your capabilities to repair, if you wish to.
Anyway I think you should be looking at mid 2012 for a W8 release if you are thinking of saving up.

As you are disposing of your W7 computer, does that mean you have a W7 operating system for sale?
If so, (and it is not a OEM version), I may be interested in buying it off you.

terry it was a free upgarde disc i got after buying a vista ultimate oem which had a voucher inside when i built the pc.
still dithering what to do as it has ddr3 ram and a c7 quad cpu.
if i rebuild its new m/b and new oem w7. do not want to splash out to see another m/b fail after 12 months.
starting to like laptops more now.
