The leap year always brings something exciting with it: the Olympics, an extra day and a pass allowing ladies to do the proposing for once. But this year, something else is coming: Microsoft Windows 8 is being unveiled on the 29th of February 2012.
Sadly, it’s only a test version. But it will be revealed at a Windows Consumer Preview during a Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.
The good news is that the beta version is expected to be released with an “app store” stocked full of goodness and mini-programs perfectly geared for the next-generation operating system. This store will be taking Google and Apple head on in the battle to own the title “King of the Castle” for entertaining, trendy and functional programs built for computers, tablets and smartphones.
Well played, Microsoft. Well played.
