Microsoft is making Windows 8.1 public preview available for download from the app store on June 26th. But you just might want to reconsider hitting that download button just yet.
If you download and install the preview, when the final version releases, you will have to reinstall all of your apps on your device. So if you have a large number of apps installed, you may just want to wait for the final version to be released.
But there are some nice features being (re)introduced in Windows 8.1, like the return of the “start button”, boot to desktop, IE11, and Outlook for Windows RT. I have also heard a report from Mary Jo Foley, stating that a new version of Visual Studio will also be available as part of the Windows 8.1 upgrade.
