If you don’t have Technet you can get it if you are running 8 via the store now. Looks like the iso’s will be available to the general public at some time. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/preview From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jon Harris Sent: Thursday, June 27, 2013 2:23 AM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: RE: [NTSysADM] General Windows 8 question That was the same time period the Microsoft sale drone told me. He kind of seemed to know something as he also volunteered that he expected to see the preview out the last week of June, first week of July time period. I still did not trust that everything he said was true but hey at least what he said is being repeated by someone I do trust.

Sent from Microsoft Surface Pro From: Jon Harris Sent: Wednesday, June 26, 2013 9:50 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> I have a client that is upgrading (replacing the drive so it will not be a real upgrade) his machine from Windows 7 Ultimate to Windows 8 Pro. I got a great deal on a full copy of Windows 8 Pro for him. The drive is about to be ordered. The question is from what I have been told at the Orlando Microsoft Store front those people running Windows 8 (RT, Pro, Phone) will be getting the new Windows 8.1 when it is released. I would like to confirm this and find out if this will come by way of a download using Windows Update or what? Anyone have any ideas? Thanks a lot!
