    Not Microsoft-related, but politics in Spain.

    Transit workers in Barcelona are staging a job action for the week of the MWC - and they have the private-sector bus and taxi drivers in sympathy (they are protesting austerity measures enacted by the regional and national governments throughout Spain).

    I don't see how that would affect the download servers in the US?

    The download servers aren't only in US, it is on Azure, replicating CDN to main datacenters worldwide. Shouldn't be a problem.

    And why would they silently launch a major Customer Preview (which is exactly what would happen if MWC gets cancelled)?

    Yes, they can just release it online!

    Just saying that the release itself is pretty much always held in tandem with a major event (such as MIX, BUILD, etc.) unless the release is *itself* the major event (which hasn't been the case with any version of Windows since XP). It tends to be all about *timing*.

    I agree with you.

    Lets wait and see what Microsoft plans to do!

    Uninstall Chrome and try again.
