    (rant-ish question) So, naturally, I get on the internet and hop on to Microsoft[^] or to the Windows section[^]. Nothing, nada, rien, zip ... :| Aren't they supposed to advertised this or do we have to search the internet to know if there will be a broadcast or some official preview/presentation somewhere ?

    I'd rather be phishing!

      Its definitely not going to be broadcast. There's about 50 journalists been invited to see it. Best bet is to find out who they are and keep an eye on what they tweet/publish shortly after the event.

          The problem is, you're looking for Windows 9. You should have looked for Windows 10[^] instead.

            Maybe it'll be like the new U2 album on iTunes. It'll just "show up" on your computer one day.

              There is no Windows 9, therefore there can be no event about it. Haven't you been paying attention? This has been discussed at great length here in the lounge. :-D

                  Well then, my opinion of CP as the IT news source has dropped considerably. :laugh:

                      Aw, don't feel bad, my opinion dropped equally for all other news sources as well. :-D

                        This seemed like a dramatically premature announcement to me. Very few details provided... I'm not sure why they even held an event.
