Microsoft Corp. may release Windows 8 to manufacturing as early as in April, 2012. The software giant reportdely wants to RTM all three flavours of Windows - for x86 clients, for servers and for ARM clients - at the same time.

Based on recent market chatter heard by Mary-Jo Foley of ZDNet, Microsoft’s goal with Windows 8 was to release to manufacturing (RTM) its next Windows release around Q2/Q3 2012; moreover, another source reportedly indicated that Microsoft is on track to RTM all Windows 8 versions by April 2012. Naturally, the second rumour confirms the first one: the lag between RTM and launch is about several months.
