[Rumor]Windows 8 RTM Going Through Final Changes,Reaches to Build 8506

It’s only a matter of few weeks for Windows 8 to be Released to Manufacturers,as indicated by Microsoft earlier at the release of the Release Preview a few weeks ago,indicating that the RTM build will be ready by the end of July.


As we  have reported earlier about the final build of Wind0ws 8 RTM  being in 8500 series ,it seems that Microsoft is giving the final touches to the RTM build.According to the new updates by Winunleaked the RTM build list has reached upto the Build number 8506.0.winmain_win8rtm.120630-1900.

Though it is still not official if this is going to be the Final build for the Windows 8 RTM since we can expect some more changes in coming days before the final sign off for RTM.The Public release however is expected in the final quarter of the year along with the release of Windows 8/Windows RT based tablets,desktops,laptops and hybrids.

The company has also announced a lucrative upgrade offers for all the existing Windows user(Windows XP and aboove) who can avail the Windows 8 Pro upgrade for as low as 39.99$ for digital copy of the upgrade.
