Link above explains all.. :)

Today, the Windows and Windows Server teams announced that Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012 have been released to manufacturing. In keeping with our goal of delivering great tools on the same cadence as our platforms, I’m thrilled to announce that we have completed final builds of Visual Studio 2012 and .NET 4.5.
This has been an exciting road for all of us involved in these projects, and we’re glad to be able to deliver these to our customers.

For MSDN Subscribers, the bits will be available for download on August 15th. Visual Studio Professional, Premium, Test Professional, and Ultimate with MSDN Subscribers can also sign up for a free, one year developer account for Windows Store today, with Windows Phone developer accounts coming soon.

We’re also planning an exciting launch event on September 12th, so mark your calendars, and visithttp://visualstudiolaunch.com for more details.

Thank you to all of you that have taken the time to try the Visual Studio 2012 Developer Preview, Beta, and Release Candidate releases. Your feedback has been very helpful.

Namaste!

Does XNA and WP7 / WP8 SDK work for it yet?

Nice, MSDN account ready and waiting for the update. Love VS2012, don't particularly like Windows 8 but I'll probably install both on the 15th.

I wonder if capital letters for menu items will become a new trend.

No official support, however it's possible with some tweaking: http://stackoverflow...-studio-2012-rc

You can turn it off with a quick registry adjustment if you want. There's an addon that does this (among other things) as well.

Good to hear, because this looks really awful
