Read moreWindows 9 Build 6.4.9830 Ready, As the Public Beta Is Almost Here
Work on Windows 9 continues these days, as we’re getting insanely close to the public launch of the very first beta of what could be another major revamp of our beloved operating system.
It appears that Microsoft has recently completed development of another Windows 9 build, as version number 6.4.9830 has been spotted online, most likely as the company was test-driving its features.
SO! MUCH! HYPE!!!
I can't help myself but get hyped over the preview. Something tells me that, as long as it's as fast as 8 and stable enough, I'll keep it on my laptop for a long time
There is a lot more hype than 8 got, I'm hoping that they learned that lesson.
If the Windows 9 preview doesn't come with a System Restore capability to go back to 8.1, I won't be able to risk installing it. I can't be without a working computer.
It wont.
I am sure it will be worth the wait but with all the pent up tech users wanting something to try out I hope they are cross connecting a bunch of servers or it will all fall flat on its face when we start downloading.....
If you want to try it out without risk use a virtual machine. See
VMware Player - Install Windows 8[2]=Virtualization and substitute 9 for 8.
Make a complete clone or better yet use a new drive for your Windows 9 and then all you have to do is switch hard drives if you have a problem.
This is easiest. I might remove my Windows Vista installed on my other hard drive and install Windows 9 >:P
Got one revived portable PC at the office. Could use it for trial. Will see if it comes up on October.
