Apparently the Chinese-localized version of the Windows 8 Release Preview, build 6.2.8400, has leaked to the internet as a 64-bit ISO download days before the official unveiling

Well, Microsoft is probably not particularly happy that this happened, but it appears as though the Chinese (ZH-CN), 64-bit version of the Windows 8 Release Preview has leaked just days before it is supposed to be officially released. The download comes in at 3.34 GB and most likely is only in Chinese, with an English version yet to make a leaked appearance.
While we haven't received proper confirmation that this is an actual Release Preview build and not a fake, Canouna mentioned on Twitter that the size seems to be legit. Other people in a related thread on the WinUnleaked forums have pulled apart a partially downloaded ISO and found an installer that appears to be for the legitimate Release Preview (build 6.2.8400). Apparently this guy over at PCBeta has already installed the build and can also confirm it is indeed a legitimate leak.
