    I sincerely think Cortana will not be active in the Windows 9 Technical Preview come 30th September as well. There are indications in the prior leaks Cortana is deactivated, which, by all means show that it is not dead but deactivated due to some reasons best known to Microsoft.

    You're right. It's "more likely" November 31st. So those websites screenshots are clearly fake.

    Release Candidate = Release Preview ;)

    AFAIK, 8 & 8.1 use same pkeyconfig for RP/RC.

    I dunno about you, but I'd rather have them take their sweet time and get it right.
    The faster they rush it, the less testing they do. The less testing they do the more bugs on launch day.
    The more bugs on launch day, the more bad press they get, and defeats the whole point of making win9 instead of win8.2.

    The more bugs on launch day, the more bad press they get. The more bad press they get, the worse the OS will do.
    The worse the OS Does, the less people will move from XP. If less people move from XP, Microsoft wont make new OS's.
    If MS Doesn't make new OS's they won't test as much.

    Don't let MS test their OS less, or they will test less.

    If Windows 8 would have been a success, Threshold would have been released in October RTM like Win 8.1 so the fact that they're waiting till April 2015 to release should mean they are taking more time that they should be anyways.

    Releasing a preview build in October, 7 months before release is quite a long time (Windows 8.1 was in preview to RTM for 4 months, Win 8 public previews to RTM 8 months). If anything we can complain they are taking far too long than too fast.
