Some rumors emerged the other day which basically suggested that it could very well be possible for a Windows 7 release in mid 2009 according to a new article posted at Internet News which mentioned that an internal Microsoft calendar listed June 3, 2009 as the planned release date of Windows 7 which would just been in less than 10 months from today on.
According to the source Microsoft will release a first public beta on October 27 at the Professional Developer’s Conference. If those information are correct the beta phase of Windows 7 would be about 7-8 months which is a month or two less than the beta latest for Windows XP and about half the time for Windows Vista. That would make sense because Microsoft surely wanted to reduce the beta phase from being 15 months to something less than that and a cut in half would be a great achievement.
