New Windows 8 “Revealed” Video Released

A new video boasting to reveal Windows 8 to the public, but actually failing to deliver on that promise, is now available on YouTube. 

As the hunger for Windows 8 details grows to insatiable levels, Microsoft continues to keep mum on the next major iteration of the Windows client. 

The software giant has pointed to the BUILD Windows conference in mid-September 2011 for the first deep insight into Windows 8. 

Michael Palermo, Microsoft Developer Evangelist, which is featured in the new Windows 8 Revealed video, provides no actual information of the successor of Windows 7. 

All his answers to Windows 8 questions do nothing more but mention the upcoming BUILD event. In fact, the entire Windows 8 “bait and switch” video is more of an advertisement for InterfaceTT than anything else. 

I guess it’s a bit funny, albeit frustrating, the way that Palermo actually dodges answering Windows 8 related questions, him and InterfaceTT’s Spike Xavier looking like they’re having a blast. 

But then again, BUILD has turned into something of a “promise land” for developers, customers, early adopters, etc. looking to find out more about Windows 8. 

The conference has already been sold out, even before Microsoft posted the agenda. The software giant even canceled the pre-sessions which were supposed to be a sort of prelude to the event, all scheduled for September 12. 

While those attending BUILD will be able to register as early as September 12, the conference will debut on September 13 with the opening keynote address. 

The Redmond company is expected to share a pre-release Build of Windows 8 at BUILD, although it is unclear whether Microsoft will offer a Milestone 3 (M3) pre-Beta release, or the fully-fledged Beta. The software giant has yet to confirm anything about BUILD, except that it will be a Windows 8-centric event.
