Actually Microsoft hardware has previewed unfinished hardware which didn't debut at all, or was radically changed: Microsoft Spot Digital Home Courier Tablet And don't get me started on their abandon-ware hardware projects (Networking, WebTV, Digital Photo TV, Zune, Microsoft at Work, MS Automotive, etc)

This argument thread is rapidly diverging from the original issue. You are now talking about product announcements, not releases. Windows 8 was 'released' today, not announced like the Courier was. Your current argument now is about a different problem (one that Longhorn / Vista faced), which is about announcing features before they were actually implemented and ready for release. I'm not going to continue this, I believe my point has been made.
