[TheReg] Win10 to ship... by end of July?

It would certainly fit, MS has always said Summer, and it might be a bit later than some thinks as if you want to get the back to school rush, late june would be more ideal but july is doable too
 
If that is true and she is or someone in her company who let it slip to her is under NDA, I wonder MS would bring down the hammer of justice and fine them just as they would a lesser employee?
 
I've just downloaded the latest "Fast" track updates (Project Spartan, Cortana) for the Windows 10 Technical Preview and its still got a ways to go.

I'm guessing late July will be the RTM with an actual retail launch by late October just like they've done with Windows Vista (October 2006), 7 (October 2009) and 8 (October 2012).

Is RTM still same exact as final? because I know for Windows 8.1 RTM was not the same as the final ISO as the final had a few more updates slipstreamed into it

They keep updating the 8.1 ISO. RTM means Release To Manufacturing (or Market). The RTM version was what they release and later updated. I think you can download 8.1 with the major update from last year right now.
 
+1 above. RTM is for Dell, HP to use so they can prepare their images for new computers. OS feature sets are locked and fixes are always available through Windows update.

I can confirm this... and furthermore it's a huge difference in some cases. I have an old netbook (Lenovo X130e), and installing Windows 8.1 from an original .iso left a lot of devices unsupported. This was a big issue for me because lenovo's support site only had drivers through Windows 7, and most of the Windows 7 drivers refused to install on 8.1. I was checking shady driver-update sites to get something that would work, and while I eventually had the laptop mostly working fine bluetooth and some other unknown device was still not working. Windows update didn't find the drivers, and neither could I, at least within the time I was willing to spend working on the issue.

Re-installed with the latest windows 8.1 iso image (available here), and it detected everything out of the box, not a single device driver missing, everything working great.
