Windows 8 RC will be available on June 1, according to some posts in the net. This latest morsel of information helps confirm earlier rumors that a preview version would be available during the first week of June. Although the future is uncertain, Windows 8 officially will launch near october.
Also, Windows 8 will be delivered with Adobe Flash pre-installed. This is an interesting departure from Microsoft's past practices, but one can't help but think they're a little late to the party -- Flash has been around since 1998.
Interestingly, for better or worse, Apple had already been bundling Flash with Mac OS for many years. The company stopped with Lion though, possibly due in part to concerns of security and Steve Jobs' apparent disdain for Flash (rofl). Will having Adobe Flash pre-installed also make Windows 8 inherently less secure?
