windows 8 Tablet

Microsoft has dabbled in tablets longer than any other  company .indeed,windows XP Tablet Edition was around back in 2005.But Windows 8 is the company's most concerted effort yet into the world
of Tablet computing,with a brand-new 'Metro' interface that's optimized for touchscreens.

   Tablet  running windows 8 are unlikely to go onsale in the UK untill 2013. Although some Intel-based tablets have been shown running the new OS,we expect tablet manufacturers to continue selecting ARM processors as they have done for Android and iOS.These are more power-efficient and allow for longer  battery life.
Microsoft has hinted  that the Classic desktop will co-exist with Metro in devices running ARM processors ,although you won't be able to run desktop software in this environment as you might on an Intel-based Windows 8 desktop.Meanwhile ,apps designed for Metro will run  on both Intel-and ARM-based systems and ,as with Android and iOS,windows 8 has its own Store for their purchase.

Since    Microsoft produces software for games consoles ,PCs,phones and tablets,there's potential
for the forthcoming OS to unify these devices and offer online services,such as Xbox Live,making
them accessible from all devices.In fact ,the Metro interface is already used by the latest
Windows Phone handsets and Xbox 360.
It's too early to say whether Windows 8 tablets will be abetter choice than the iPad or best Android tablets.The interface looks good,but content remains king.
