Microsoft has just announced about three editions of their much anticipated Windows 8 operating system. Microsoft Windows 8 will be available for all type of devices, from a PC to tablets, both 32 and 64 bit with a no-compromise experience promise and 3 version will be available for Windows 8 when it is released to market.
Microsoft has worked all their possible to make Windows 8 much better for end user and already a Windows 8 Consumer Preview Public Beta available for download here. Windows 8 will give you all the the flexibility you need, whether you’re on an x86/64 or a WOA PC. You can use a touch screen or a keyboard and mouse and switch them anytime. Windows 8 is beautiful, fast, and fluid design is perfect for a wide range of hardware. Also with Windows Store you can download all the apps you want. And those apps can work together too so you can share photos, maps, contacts, links and whatever else you want faster and easier.
According to Windows team blog, First, Windows 8 is the official product name for the next x86/64 editions of Windows OS. For PCs and tablets powered by x86 processors (both 32 and 64 bit), it will have two editions: Windows 8 and Windows 8 Pro. For all general users, Windows 8 will be the right choice. It will include all the features above plus an updated Windows Explorer, Task Manager, better multi-monitor support and the ability to switch languages on the fly, which was previously only available in Enterprise/Ultimate editions of Windows. For China and a small set of select emerging markets, we will offer a local language-only edition of Windows 8.
Windows 8 Pro is designed to help tech enthusiasts and business/technical professionals obtain a broader set of Windows 8 technologies. It includes all the features in Windows 8 plus features for encryption, virtualization, PC management and domain connectivity. Windows Media Center will be available as an economical “media pack” add-on to Windows 8 Pro. If you are an enthusiast or you want to use your PC in a business environment, you will want Windows 8 Pro.
The third editions is Windows RT, which is the newest member of the Windows family also known as Windows on ARM or WOA. This single edition will only be available pre-installed on PCs and tablets powered by ARM processors and will help enable new thin and lightweight form factors with impressive battery life. Windows RT will include touch-optimized desktop versions of the new Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote. For new apps, the focus for Windows RT is development on the new Windows runtime, or WinRT, which Microsoft unveiled in September and forms the foundation of a new generation of cloud-enabled, touch-enabled, web-connected apps of all kinds.
Currently no words on pricing and availability of these three version of Microsoft Windows 8 but all users now eagerly waiting for theses final versions of Microsoft Windows 8 OS.
