A leaked Dell roadmap obtained byAndroid Central shows that the company plans to have a Windows 8 tablet ready for the first quarter of 2012. The tablet, codenamed Peju has been pencilled in for the first three months of next year. This is a good six months before the expected launch of Microsoft’s next desktop operating system.
I think many people subscibed the windows8news.com ,the recent post is
Rumors are the next best thing when there are no official news. That’s true for the majority of blogs out there on today’s Internet that love to report on every rumor imaginable, no matter how realistic or unrealistic it is. Even worse, some turn rumors into facts and confuse their readership in the process.
A bunch of rumors has been posted on the Russian news site Wzor. The website reports that the final version of Windows 8 will be assembled at the end of 2012, and that the server version will be named Windows Server 2012.
They have allegedly gotten their hands on the internal Windows 8 development plan. According to their information: (more…)
Microsoft has just released a press release about the ARM support of their upcoming operating system Windows 8. The press release basically states that Windows 8 will indeed support System on a Chip (SoC) architectures on x86 and ARM architecture. We have already mentioned that fact earlier today.
Please note that the text below is the full press release by Microsoft in its released form. It offers additional information and partner quotes about the support and is one of the first official first-party information about Windows 8 even though the operating system is not specifically mentioned in the press release.

While we’ve not seen the anticipated Windows 8 first peak at CES, which was unlikely anyway given the raft of WIndows 7 tablets being launched there, new details about the OS have emerged.
Technology blogger Paul Thurrott is reporting that the new OS will feature a tile-based interface called Mosh (presumably because you can dive right in). This won’t be a new mainstream interface however, and will be one specifically for devices such as tablets, slates and other Windows embedded devices. It also sounds initially rather like the custom Windows 7 interface for the ExoPC (more…)
The rumor that Microsoft’s CEO Steve Ballmer would showcase a development version of the upcoming operating system Windows 8 came up some weeks ago and it was quickly picked up not only by tech blogs but newspapers as well.
We have decided to post no article on it here on Windows 8 News as it was to vague and we wanted confirmation first before we did. With milestone 2 in the development just passed it seemed unlikely that a center stage demonstration was going to happen.
And the rumor of a Windows 8 demo at CES 2011 was quickly taken a backseat (more…)
Microsoft is said to be bringing a bigger focus to PC gaming in the next version of Windows.
Citing anonymous sources, TechRadar reported yesterday that PC gaming will be part of a “new push” by Microsoft, as well as a “key component for the whole OS.”
Little is known about the next version of Windows. Slides that leaked onto the Web earlier this year hinted at a variety of features, including a digital software marketplace that would let users purchase and install Windows software.
Over the years Microsoft has been involved with several similar efforts–both through its own marketplace software with Games for Windows Live, as well as its recently refreshed Web downloads store to offer gamers a way to buy and manage games. And beginning with Windows Vista, Microsoft made a serious push at making games a more central part of the Windows experience by tweaking its file Explorer system to turn the games menu into more of an entertainment hub.
Critics, however, have slighted Microsoft’s ambitions compared to efforts by companies like Valve with its Steam platform, as well as Direct2Drive, Impulse, and Desura–all of which offer direct-to-PC downloads and community features, often times with fewer hurdles.
There are also some clear reasons to push PC gaming after taking a look at trends on the console side. Microsoft’s console sales during 2010 were particularly strong, with research group NPD reporting that the software giant had sold 34 percent more Xbox 360 units than in 2009. Microsoft also recently announced that sales of its Kinect accessory had topped 2.5 million, halfway toward the 5 million the company expects to sell by the end 2010.
Perhaps then, this gaming push could be deeper integration of the kind of features found on Microsoft’s Xbox Live platform, something that PC gamers can now get a taste of–though not without first downloading and installing client software. Taking that extra step out of the process, and building that interactivity in at a system level could certainly go a long way toward giving gaming a higher profile.
