Windows "Blue"

Blue | Windows 8 content from Paul Thurrott's SuperSite for Windows

“Blue,” a set of “year one” updates to Windows 8 and related platforms that will supposedly right all the wrongs of the original releases.
...
Blue is scheduled for a summer 2013 RTM
...
will be free for current Windows 8 users

Windows 9 is of course happening and is under development now, and will ship roughly three years after Windows 8, as you might expect.

Microsoft may be reducing OEM pricing of the Windows 8 (or RT) with Office from $120 to $30
