Microsoft sets Build conference on March 30th

Microsoft has officially announced the date and location for its upcoming developer’s event—the Build Conference. It will be happening once again in San Francisco, this time from March 30^th to April 1^st. Speculation is the event will focus mostly on Windows 10 and the rumoured Redstone update for the OS. This will be in line with Microsoft’s “Windows as a service” approach, having major updates come in on a yearly basis (much like what Apple does with OS X). Preview builds should also be announced during said event. But again these are still speculation. To get more details in the future, perhaps you’d want to sign up for the mailing list.
