Apple has seeded the eighth Developer Preview of OS X Mavericks to developers, nearly two weeks after the release of the seventh Developer Preview. Registered developers can receive the update via the Software Update tool in the Mac App Store.

OS X Mavericks, which is expected to be released this fall, includes multiple new features like a tabbed Finder, full screen dual monitor capabilities, Safari improvements, and a new Maps app.

Apple is reportedly targeting a late October launch for OS X Mavericks.

Update: As noted by 9to5Mac, Developer Preview 8 includes an updated version of iTunes 11.1 that adds an option to turn off song change notifications.

Hopefully my Mail crashes and freezes have been fixed...drives me nuts to have to force quit almost every hour.

I don't, but Mail have to be restarted every now and then - it just doesn't update after a while.

Added more 27" Retina wallpapers .... interesting...

So a Retina iMac:apple: or a Retina TB Display is on the way...

Pardon the question, but how can a wallpaper be 27"....?

I guess you meant the resolution is double of 2560x1440, which with apple mean a 27" monitor? :)
