Microsoft marketing head Tami Reller said this week there's been over 2 million downloads of Windows 8.1 so far, but it's not clear if that's just of the preview version or if it includes the RTM bits



From Neowin:

Microsoft launched the preview version of Windows 8.1 in June, and earlier this week it allowed TechNet and MSDN subscribers to access the RTM build of the Windows 8 update. This week, during a keynote address at the Intel Developer Forum, Microsoft's marketing head Tami Reller told the crowd there had been over 2 million downloads of Windows 8.1 so far.

The transcript of the keynote speech doesn't show that Reller offered any more info on that statistic. so we don't know if the 2 million number is just for the preview version or if Microsoft is also counting the RTM bits it offered to developers this week. We have emailed Microsoft for more information. Of course, we are sure those download numbers don't include any that come from the leaked preview or RTM Windows 8.1 versions that have made their way online.
