When a Twitter user asked:

"Hi. We had a discussion at work how long a build of win8 take. Can you answer this question? Thx."

The Building Windows 8 answered:

"we do builds every day. a build for us is a matrix of language / sku / debug or retail / 64 or 32 or ARM and more."

Just like any other software company -_-

We make new builds or two at RIM everyday too, nothing special. I'm sure Google also does the same with Android. These builds don't even take 30 minutes on the machines that are designed to compile these.

Hehe, nice! This reminds me of that i hate that in the news sites it comes out in the title: Will Windows 8 be build 9001? I dont care about how the build number looks when RTM is out.. but there sure is some more extreme guys out there. xD
