Microsoft has apparently scratched off the name "Windows 9" from their marketing materials and is instead calling the next version of the Windows operating system "Windows 10." I was under the impression that the Developer Preview would be released today, but it seems like that will actually happen tomorrow; it was just the developer conference event that happened today. When the release actually happens, you'll be able to download it at the Windows Preview site.
I have purposefully avoided demonstrations of the OS because I want to do a "first impressions" video on it. Allegedly, it removes the Charms bar and the Start screen, instead bringing back the Start menu, now metro-ized. Also in the feature list was the ability to create virtual desktops (kind of like that Windows XP PowerToy, I guess), which is pretty awesome.
Until the release, you can read the Windows blog article about it. Look forward to my video on Windows 10!
