Microsoft has announced a Windows 8 launch event in New York on October 25th, reports Business Insider. The new operating system will be released on October 26th.

We don’t know any details on the event beyond that it’s being held on October 25. No venue. No specific time. No agenda. But we imagine this will be Microsoft’s final demonstration of all the new stuff coming to Windows 8. Maybe it’ll finally let the press play with the Surface tablet too.
