The press is full of the fact that the UK managing director of ACER, Bobby Watkins has let slip the projected release date for Windows7 as October 23^rd 2009.

Given that even Microsoft leaked that Windows 7 RC would be out in May, I guess they can’t complain if someone else lets the cat out of the bag regarding the actual release date.  In anycase, they probably can’t wait to put Vista behind them.
